Free AccessMNI ANALYSIS: China's Oct Consumer Inflation Remains Subdued
BEIJING (MNI) - China's consumer inflation remained elevated in October
while factory-gate inflation slowed for the fourth consecutive month, official
data released by the National Bureau of Statistics on Friday showed.
--CPI down on food prices
China's Consumer Price Index held steady at up 2.5% on the year in October,
matching September's outturn and in line with the MNI survey median.
On a monthly basis, CPI rose 0.2% in October, down from September's 0.7%,
with weaker food prices weighing and rising petroleum products pushing in the
opposite direction.
Food prices fell 0.3% m/m, reversing a sharp gain of 2.4% in September.
Vegetable prices declined by 3.5% m/m, as autumn and winter varieties arrived on
the market and egg prices fell by 4%.
The outbreak of African swine flu contributed to a 1% monthly rise in pork
prices. Fruit prices rose 1.9%.
Non-food items gained 0.3% m/m, unchanged from the pace in September.
Prices of gasoline, diesel, coal and liquefied petroleum gas rose 4.2%, 4.7%,
2.9% and 1.8% respectively, reflecting the global oil price rally seen earlier
in September.
--Cheaper raw materials ease PPI inflation
The Producer Price Index was up 3.3% y/y in October, matching the MNI
survey median and decelerating from September's 3.6% against a backdrop of
cooling manufacturing activity and sluggish domestic demand. It gained 0.4% m/m.
The easing of PPI inflation was partly due to cheaper raw material prices,
according to a CICC report.
The purchase price and factory gate price of major raw materials, two
sub-indices of the PMI, dropped by 1.8 and 2.3 percentage points respectively in
October.
Factory gate prices of crude, coal and other fuel processing production
rose 3.1% m/m, decreasing by 0.9 percentage point from September's 4.0%, with
the international oil price falling back in October.
