According to the latest data from DataTrack, the most recent reading for China's non-food CPI index in Q2 2026 fell to 99.9 (a MoM decrease of 0.1%), dropping significantly from the previous 100.7. Dragged down by falling energy prices and cooling post-holiday travel demand, both service and non-food prices weakened. This indicates that while PPI hits new highs, terminal consumption momentum still requires further policy stimulus.
