According to the latest data from DataTrack, China's non-food CPI month-over-month growth rate for the third quarter of 2026 climbed to 100.3 (up 0.3% MoM), turning positive from the previous value of 99.9 (down 0.1% MoM). Although this data slightly diverges from the official non-food CPI reading which showed a slight decline, it is consistent with the core CPI increase; driven by the summer travel boom and AI consumer electronics upgrades, the non-food sector demonstrates the resilience of domestic demand recovery.
