CPI rises by 1% YoY in Feb in China
10 Mar 23 1 min read
On a month-on-month basis, February's CPI declined by 0.5 per cent, while January's CPI increased by 0.8 per cent, NBS said.
Core CPI rose by 0.6 per cent year on year in February after a 1 per cent rise in January.
NBS attributed the consumer inflation ease in February to factors like the decline in consumer demand after the January Spring Festival holiday and sufficient market supplies, while the fall in factory-gate prices was affected by a high comparison base in the previous year, an official media outlet reported.
