Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core View of the Report - In June 2025, CPI increased by 0.1% year-on-year, and PPI decreased by 3.6% year-on-year. Gold prices and oil prices affected inflation, with gold contributing to the rise of core CPI but not being the main factor, and the increase in oil prices being offset by the off - season of domestic production and the weakening of the "rush - export" effect on PPI [6][9]. Summary According to the Table of Contents I. Two Core Concerns about Prices Amid Gold and Oil Price Fluctuations (1) Is the Recovery of Core CPI Driven by Gold Prices or the Recovery of the Demand Side? - Core CPI can be split into services, core consumer goods (excluding gold), and gold. In the first half of 2025, core CPI increased by 0.5% cumulatively month - on - month, with gold contributing 0.13%, services contributing 0.17%, and other core consumer goods contributing 0.2%. Gold boosted core CPI but was not the main factor. The core consumer goods excluding gold were weaker in Q2 than in Q1, and a new round of consumption stimulus policies may be introduced [12]. (2) Why Did PPI Decrease Year - on - Year in June Despite the Sharp Increase in Oil Prices? - In June, the month - on - month decline of PPI remained at - 0.4%. Although the 9% increase in crude oil prices pulled PPI up by about 0.3 percentage points, the off - season of domestic production and the weakening of the "rush - export" effect offset this impact. In the off - season of domestic production, industries such as ferrous metal smelting and rolling processing, non - metallic mineral products, coal - related industries, and power and heat production and supply affected PPI to decline by about 0.33 percentage points. After the weakening of the "rush - export" effect, the prices of some export - oriented industries continued to fall [16]. II. June CPI: Food Performed Better than Seasonal Trends, and Oil and Gold Prices Supported the Month - on - Month Recovery, with the Year - on - Year Increase Reaching 0.1% (1) Food Items - The month - on - month decline of the CPI food item in June fell back to around - 0.4%, better than the seasonal trend, affecting CPI to decline by about 0.09 percentage points. Pork prices decreased by 1.2% due to oversupply. Fresh food prices were better than the seasonal trend, with freshwater fish and fresh vegetables rising by 4.3% and 0.7% respectively, while eggs and fresh fruits dragged down the CPI [20]. (2) Non - food Items - The month - on - month of the CPI non - food item recovered to around 0. Oil prices rebounded, with gasoline prices rising by 0.4%. Core consumer goods were mainly dragged down by clothing and automobiles, while gold prices were the main supporting factor, affecting CPI to decline by about 0.01 percentage points. Tourism was weaker than the seasonal trend, and rent increased during the graduation season, with little change in overall service prices [21][27][30]. III. June PPI: The Off - season of Domestic Production and the Drag of Some Export Industries Led to a Year - on - Year Decline to - 3.6% (1) Overall - The month - on - month decline of PPI remained around - 0.4%, mainly dragged down by production materials, and consumer goods also weakened. Production materials prices decreased by 0.6%, and consumer goods prices turned negative [35]. (2) By Industry - In June 2025, the number of industries with falling prices among industrial producers remained around two - thirds. The main supporting factor was the crude oil industry chain. The drag factors included raw material manufacturing industries such as building materials, energy prices of coal and electricity, and export - related industries such as electronic equipment, electrical machinery, and textiles [37][41][43].

Group 1: Report Overview - The report is a fixed - income review report titled "Why is the Divergence Trend between CPI and PPI Intensifying? - Review of June Price Data" dated July 9, 2025 [1][2] - The chief analyst is Yan Ziqi, and the analyst is Hong Ziyan [2] Group 2: Data Observation CPI Data - In June, CPI was up 0.1% year - on - year, rising 0.2 pct from the previous month and moving from negative to positive. The month - on - month CPI decreased by 0.1%, with the decline narrowing by 0.1 pct from the previous month and the value being at a relatively high level in the same period over the years [2] - Core CPI continued to rise, indicating a possible demand recovery, but it was uneven. The year - on - year increase in CPI was stronger than that of core CPI mainly due to the reduced drag from the energy item. After removing the impact of food and energy, core inflation continued to rise year - on - year, reflecting a demand recovery. However, the recovery of consumer demand was mainly supported by sub - items such as transportation, communication, rent, water and electricity, and household appliances, while CPI in areas such as clothing, education, tourism, and household services decreased month - on - month [3] - Service CPI continued to grow, and consumer goods CPI continued to recover. The demand structure continued to shift from food to consumption and services. The decline in consumer CPI narrowed, and service CPI had been growing for 5 months, with the year - on - year value remaining at 0.5% as in the previous month. Food prices remained stable, and the increase in vegetable prices led to a narrowing of the decline in food CPI [3] PPI Data - The month - on - month PPI of consumer goods weakened. The reason was that during the subsidy gap period, the path for demand to spread from policy - driven areas to other consumer goods areas slowed down compared with the previous month. Durable consumer goods declined month - on - month in June [4] - External demand suppressed the prices of the processing industry, while the input factor of international crude oil drove the price recovery of upstream industries, and PPI entered a weak equilibrium state. In June, the decline in external demand orders in the PMI indicated a weakening of external demand, leading to a month - on - month decline in the PPI of the processing industry. High temperatures restricted infrastructure construction, resulting in demand lagging behind material supply. The decline in coal prices due to new energy substitution and over - capacity continued to reduce PPI prices, but the increase in international crude oil prices repaired the drag on domestic related industries, and deflation in upstream industries such as mining and raw material industries eased [4] Group 3: In - depth Perspective From the Perspective of Resident Income - Since March, the year - on - year decline in rent has narrowed to - 0.1% and remained unchanged for 4 consecutive months. The stable and flat trend of rent may indicate that the income improvement trend has stalled, and income recovery is the core driving force for the recovery of total demand and the return of price levels to positive [6] From the Perspective of Corporate Activity - In June, the year - on - year price of pork dropped to - 8.5%, and the month - on - month price dropped to - 1.2%. The decline in pork prices was mainly due to oversupply and also reflected a contraction in pork demand in June, suggesting a possible structural decline in factory labor demand. The continuous squeeze on corporate profits in previous months still had a lagging impact on the economy, and the significant decline in the PMI of small enterprises and employment in the manufacturing and service industries in June confirmed the contraction in pork demand. The month - on - month decline in liquor prices was 0.3%, the same as the average in the past 5 years, implying that the business activity of small enterprises remained weak [6] From the Perspective of Corporate Price Transmission - The increase in household appliance prices in June may be an illusion during the policy window period. The month - on - month increase in household appliance CPI was likely due to manufacturers adjusting prices during the subsidy gap period. The price model of leading brands was to "raise the marked price and offset with subsidies" to achieve a nominal price increase. In June, the subsidy amount in many places was exhausted, leading to a decrease in the subsidy part and an increase in the final product price. The price increase during the subsidy gap period may be a game behavior to transfer inventory pressure [7] High - frequency Data - International oil prices showed a downward trend, and PPI would face downward pressure in the next stage. The marginal price of Nanhua industrial products began to rise, but the price of rebar continued to decline. Although the third batch of 300 billion dual - purpose funds had been issued, high - temperature weather restricted demand release and limited physical construction. Glass prices continued to decline, indicating no improvement in the real estate market [7] Group 4: Future Outlook CPI Outlook - Currently, CPI has achieved an upward breakthrough with a marginal reduction in external interference items, but the demand recovery is uneven, and the recovery trend needs to be consolidated. High - frequency data shows that international oil prices have started to decline, and with the easing of local geopolitical conflicts, it is highly likely that the oil price center will shift downward in July, which may drive next month's CPI down. In July, the next batch of fiscal funds will start to be in place, and the household appliance sub - item of CPI may decline. Due to the slowdown in the transmission to other industries caused by the subsidy gap and the crowding - out of consumption in other areas this month, the price recovery in other areas next month still needs to be observed. From the perspective of corporate activities, the continuous profit compression pattern has led to a decline in the prosperity of small enterprises and employment, and the consumption demand contributed by the income side is still not optimistic [7] PPI Outlook - The supply - side dilemma of PPI has not changed. The "rush - to - export" effect of external demand is fading, and although the pull from domestic demand has slowed down, it may rebound in July, maintaining the current weak equilibrium. On the supply side, the over - capacity pattern is difficult to change in the short term, and the decline in international oil prices in July may lead to a decline in PPI prices. In terms of external demand, there are still challenges, and exports are likely to decline in the second half of the year, with trade cooling down, which is difficult to significantly drive up total demand. In terms of domestic demand, after the next batch of subsidy funds is in place in July, on the one hand, it will directly improve corporate profits, and on the other hand, the uneven pattern of CPI demand recovery may improve, and the chain of CPI pulling PPI will restart, and the PPI of consumer goods may continue to rise. However, overall, the upward repair amplitude may be relatively limited [8]
