industry-competition-moat

Analyze the industry structure, competition, supply-demand balance, and moat of an A-share company. Use this skill when testing whether a company's growth can be sustained, whether its claimed differentiation is real, and which external industry forces could compress returns. All outputs must include accessible source links.

Industry Competition Moat

Place the company inside its real industry structure and test whether it has defensible economics.

Non-Negotiable Rules

  • Use public policy, statistics, procurement, and company disclosures to validate industry claims.
  • Separate company claims from third-party validation.
  • State which competitor comparison points are fact and which are inference.
  • Do not repeat detailed company financial scoring here.
  • Default every intermediate and final output to Simplified Chinese unless the user explicitly requests another language.

Read First

  • skills/shared/references/source-registry.md
  • skills/shared/references/citation-standard.md
  • skills/shared/references/analysis-pattern-selector.md
  • skills/shared/references/language-output-standard.md
  • skills/shared/references/sector-adaptation-checklist.md
  • skills/industry-competition-moat/references/moat-grid.md
  • If the company is in a policy-sensitive or asset-heavy sector, load the relevant shared overlay first.
  • If the company is an IDC or AI-compute infrastructure case, skills/shared/references/idc-heavy-asset-transition-overlay.md and skills/industry-competition-moat/references/idc-value-chain-and-peers.md are optional example overlays.

When to Use

  • Assess industry attractiveness and rivalry.
  • Compare the company with listed peers and alternative business models.
  • Test whether policy, capital, qualification, data, channel, or switching cost creates a moat.

Workflow

  1. Define the value chain and the company's exact position in it.
  2. Pull industry-policy and demand data from official sources.
  3. Select a source-backed peer set and compare capacity, clients, margins, and business model.
  4. Apply a moat grid and a five-forces style structure.
  5. Highlight where the company captures value and where it remains vulnerable.

Required Output

  • 事实: industry size, policy tailwind/headwind, peer positions, value-chain role
  • 解读: moat strength, structural advantage, likely pressure points
  • 待验证问题: missing peer metrics, uncertain supply additions, unclear regulation
  • Value Chain Map: each link labeled strong, medium, or weak capture ability

Boundaries

  • Do not run the company's order pipeline in detail.
  • Do not build the risk dashboard here.
  • Do not produce target price or trading plan.
