Core Insights - The consumer price index (CPI) showed a slight increase in September, with a month-on-month rise of 0.1%, marking a shift from the previous month where it was flat. The core CPI, excluding food and energy, rose by 1% year-on-year, the highest increase in 19 months, indicating a recovery in consumer prices [1][2][3] CPI Analysis - The year-on-year CPI decreased by 0.3%, but the decline was less severe than the previous month, narrowing by 0.1 percentage points. The drop was primarily due to the "carryover effect" from previous price changes, with food prices falling by 4.4% [2][3] - Food prices saw a month-on-month increase of 0.7%, driven by seasonal rises in fresh vegetables, eggs, fruits, lamb, and beef, while pork and aquatic product prices decreased due to sufficient supply [1][2] PPI Insights - The producer price index (PPI) remained flat month-on-month for two consecutive months, with a year-on-year decline of 2.3%, which is a reduction of 0.6 percentage points from the previous month. This decline is attributed to a low comparison base from the previous year and the positive effects of macroeconomic policies [3][4] - Certain industries, such as coal processing and black metal smelting, have shown price stabilization, with some experiencing price increases for two consecutive months [3][4] Market Dynamics - The ongoing construction of a unified national market has contributed to a narrowing of year-on-year price declines in various sectors. Improved market competition and capacity management have led to better price stability in industries like coal and photovoltaic equipment [4] - The upgrading of industrial structures and the release of consumer potential have driven price increases in specific sectors, such as aircraft manufacturing and specialized electronic materials, reflecting a shift towards higher-quality and upgraded consumption [4]
