PPI周期率是否再现？ 徐晨曦（投资咨询资格证号：Z0001908） 投资咨询业务资格：证监许可【2011】1290号 2025年11月24日 回顾近20年的PPI同比走势，可以看出大致存在5年左右的周期，且与工业品价格高度正相关。最近一轮 PPI周期始于2020年，高点出现在2021年四季度，此后不断回落，自2022年四季度陷入通缩，至今已持续3 年。以时间跨度来看，明年似乎将是重要的时间节点。今年三季度以来，在"反内卷"政策的推动下部分工业品 价格出现反弹，带动PPI出现企稳回升迹象。那么2026年PPI能否开启上行周期，从而使得经济逐渐摆脱通缩 态势？ 图1. PPI与工业品指数 数据来源：Wind、南华研究 过去历次PPI进入上行周期或有供需的因素推动，或有财政、货币等宏观政策推动，亦或二者都有。供 需因素主导的例子典型如2016年，当时供给侧改革与货币化棚改同时进行，供给收缩叠加需求扩张导致工业 品价格上涨，带动PPI走出通缩。再比如2020年，疫情后全球主要经济体均实施了财政与货币的"双宽松"政 策，财政政策推升了需求，而货币政策则强化了商品的金融属性，与此同时商品供应受疫情影响出现阶段性 中断， ...
