From think.ing.com|Jul 8, 2026China's June CPI inflation slowed down to 1.0% year-on-year, down from 1.2% in May. This came in a hair lower than forecasts (market: 1.1%, ING: 1.1%), and marked a three-month low. The primary reason for the slowdown was non-food inflation, which fell 0.4pp in June to 1.5% YoY. Within non-food categories, we saw transportation fuel inflation drop sharply to 15.3% YoY, down from 21.1% in May. Amid the broader sharp drop of crude oil prices, Beijing N92 gasoline prices were cut twice in June, and once already in July. This suggests ...
From finance.yahoo.com|Jul 8, 2026China's producer price inflation surged for a fourth straight month in June to its highest since July 2022, while consumer prices extended gains, official data showed on Thursday, indicating that cost pressures remained elevated for domestic manufacturers. The producer price index (PPI) rose 4.1% year-on-year, National Bureau of Statistics data showed, matching the forecast in a Reuters poll. The index had risen 3.9% in May.

From cnbc.com|Jun 9, 2026China’s wholesale prices rose at the fastest pace in nearly four years in May, driven by surging raw material costs from the Iran war and an artificial intelligence investment boom, while consumer inflation came in below estimates. The producer price index jumped 3.9% from a year ago, the highest since July 2022, topping economists’ forecast of 3.8%, and outpacing 2.8% in April, according to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Wednesday. Wholesale prices returned to growth in March as the input cost surge stemming ...
From think.ing.com|Jun 9, 2026China's CPI inflation remained unchanged at 1.2% year-on-year in May, marginally softer than our forecast and market expectations for a slight uptick to 1.3%. Inflation has been at or over 1% for the past 4 months, and in positive territory for 8 straight months, suggesting the reflation trend is solidifying. Consumer prices were supported by a major surge in the transportation fuels subcategory, which rose 21.1% YoY in May, reflecting higher oil prices. While local gasoline prices generally didn’t rise as much as Brent crude oil, we ...
From investinglive.com|Jun 9, 2026China's producer price inflation accelerated sharply in May, with factory-gate prices rising 3.9% year-on-year, up from 2.8% in April and marginally above market forecasts, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. On a monthly basis PPI gained 0.5%, while industrial purchase prices climbed 5.8% year-on-year and 1.3% month-on-month, signalling that upstream cost pressures continue to build. Consumer price inflation told a different story. Headline CPI held at 1.2% year-on-year in May, unchanged from the prior month but below ...

China's consumer price index inflation slowed to 1.0% year-on-year, down from 1.3%. Headline CPI came in slightly lower than expected but still leaves first-quarter inflation at 0.9% YoY, the highest since the first quarter of 2023. Looking at the CPI breakdown, the slowdown was largely due to a normal price decline following China's Lunar New Year holiday. Food prices dropped -2.7% month-on-month in March, leading to a tepid 0.3% YoY growth overall. We are still seeing a drag from pork prices, with a -7.3% MoM slide resulting in a ...
From cnbc.com|Apr 9, 2026China’s factory-gate prices rose for the first time in more than three years while consumer inflation moderated in March, amid a surge in oil prices as the Iran war upended global energy markets.
