China's Consumer Inflation Rise Fueled by Energy Costs
Official data from the Chinese Statistics Authority showed that the Consumer Price Index in China increased by 0.9% year-on-year in September 2026, driven by rising energy and industrial consumer goods prices. The index also rose by 0.2% on a monthly basis, with food prices decreasing by 1.7%. Meanwhile, a 16.6% increase in gasoline prices, along with higher costs for travel and medical services, contributed to the inflation. The decline in food prices reflects a decrease in food costs, but rising energy and industrial goods prices continued to push the overall inflation index upward.
