Our primary error, we think, has been to
6、try to identify the best positioned chains, either from a supply perspective (chloralkali) or those with raw material tailwinds (PET) or those close to an inflection point (TiO2), instead of recognizing that in a weak demand environment everything is oversupplied - and every single major commodity c
7、hemical chain has generated negative returns since the start of 2018.The difference between commodity chemicals and defensives is at an extreme, both in terms of performance and valuation. Industrial gases and specialities stocks with reasonably certain high single-digit earnings growth are trading
8、at 13-14x EBITDA for FY2019e, while there is an unwillingness in the market to play guess the trough* on commodity stocks such as in TiO2 (trading at 5-6x trough EBITDA), which can fall further still, especially if macro issues continue to worsen.We expect this to turn, even if ifs not clear what mi
9、ght catalyse the turn. Demand remains weak and investors are concerned about recessionary risks. That said, with commodity space earnings levels now 25% below normalised levels (a sharp contrast from 12 months ago, when earnings were 25% above normalised) and multiple chains at troughs, we think the
10、 upside skew from here is much more meaningful than the downside.We remain positive on the TiO2 names Chemours, Venator and Tronox. TiO2 was the first to signal the downturn and we expect it (at some point) to be one of the first chains to recover. We also reiterate our Buy rating on LyondellBasell

13、the analyst certifications in the Disclosure appendix, and with the Disclaimer, which forms part of it.ValuationWe value Dow based on a combination of PE, EV/EBITDA and DCF.On a normalised PE basis, we use an 11.5x multiple (in line with the historical average of its closest peers) on normalised EPS
14、 of USD4.6 (down from USD4.7 on lower estimates), implying fair value of USD53 per share (USD54 previously).On a normalised EV/EBITDA basis, we use a 6x multiple (unchanged, in line with the peers long-term average) on our normalised EBITDA of USD8.2bn (lower than LISD8.3bn earlier on lower estimate
15、s), implying fair value of USD47 per share (down from USD48 earlier). In our DCF, we use a 9.5% cost of equity, comprising a 3.0% risk-free rate, a 5.0% equity risk premium and a beta of 1.3. We use a 4.2% cost of debt assumption and a 70/30 target equity to debt ratio, which leads us to a weighted
16、average cost of capital of 7.9%. Our terminal value uses our estimate of normalised EBITDA and a terminal growth rate of 1 % to reflect long-term energy price inflation and little else (all unchanged).Our DCF implies USD53 per share fair value (from USD56 earlier on our reduced earnings estimates).O
17、ur rounded target price of USD51 (down from USD53 earlier) is based on the average of the three valuation methodologies.
