CCTV News:According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics today (April 11th), in the first quarter of this year, China’s consumer price rose by 1.3% year-on-year, while the ex-factory price of industrial producers decreased year-on-year.

1— In March, on average, the national consumer price increased by 1.3% compared with the same period of last year, and the ex-factory price of industrial producers decreased by 1.6% compared with the same period of last year.
Guo Liyan, Director of Comprehensive Situation Research Office of China Macroeconomic Research Institute:Judging from the state of CPI operation in the first quarter of this year, food is a factor to stabilize CPI operation. For example, measures to stabilize the production of some fresh agricultural products and promote the convergence of production and marketing have been solidly implemented, and food has shown a trend of seasonal stability and decline. At the same time, the price of service also shows a moderate fluctuation trend, which is basically consistent with the current contact service industry and some aggregate consumption and stable upward trend. Prices continued to run smoothly in the first quarter, which also laid a solid foundation for the overall stability of prices throughout the year.
With the continuous recovery of production and life, the consumer market is well supplied. In March, China’s consumer price index (CPI) decreased month-on-month and increased year-on-year. From the ring comparison, food prices decreased by 1.4% due to factors such as warmer weather and increased fresh vegetables. Non-food prices fell by 0.2% from last month to be flat. In non-food products, due to the continuous recovery of travel demand, the prices of accommodation and air tickets increased year-on-year. From a year-on-year perspective, CPI rose by 0.7%, and the growth rate dropped by 0.3 percentage points from last month.
In March, affected by the accelerated recovery of the domestic economy and the price trend of some commodities in the international market, the national industrial producer price index (PPI) was flat month-on-month and decreased year-on-year. From the ring comparison, with the continuous improvement of domestic production and market demand, the prices of steel, cement and other industries have risen. Due to seasonal factors such as rising temperature, the demand for coal has decreased, and the prices of coal mining and washing industries have declined. In addition, the price of electronic equipment manufacturing such as computer communication has turned from a decline last month to an increase. From a year-on-year perspective, the PPI decreased year-on-year due to the higher comparative base of oil, coal, steel and other industries in the same period last year.
