The latest data from DataTrack shows that China's Consumer Goods PPI (previous month = 100) for Q3 2026 recorded 100.1, a slight decline from the previous value of 100.2, indicating a slowdown in the upward momentum of consumer goods factory-gate prices. Against the backdrop of surging international energy and raw material prices, the terminal consumer market remains constrained by weak domestic demand, making it extremely difficult for upstream inflation to be smoothly transmitted to downstream consumer goods.
