China’s passenger car sales rise slowed in October, yet export continued strong momentum.
Here’s what you need to know about China in the past 24 hours中国经济要闻
China"s inflation fell to its slowest pace in seven months, in October, due to a high comparison base and softer consumer demand, the National Bureau of Statistics said on Wednesday.
The country"s consumer price index, a main gauge of inflation, rose by 2.1 percent year-on-year in October, a seven-month low, down from 2.8 percent in September, the NBS data showed.
Compared with a year ago, food prices increased 7 percent, down from 8.8 percent in September, as the comparison base rose, and vegetables, fruits and aquatic products came into the market in large numbers while consumer demand fell after the National Day holiday, the bureau said.
On a month-on-month basis, the CPI growth also slowed to 0.1 percent, compared with 0.3 percent in September.
The growth in core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices and is deemed as a better gauge of the supply-demand relationship in the economy, came in at 0.6 percent year-on-year, the same as a month earlier.
Meanwhile, China"s producer price index, which gauges factory-gate prices, declined by 1.3 percent from a year ago in October, following a 0.9 percent rise in September, marking the first negative PPI growth in almost two years, according to the NBS.
The bureau mainly attributed the fall in producer prices to last year"s high comparison base, adding that the PPI rose by 0.2 percent on a monthly basis in October as demand increased in some industries, following a 0.1 percent decline in September.
受节后消费需求回落、去年同期对比基数走高等因素影响，10月份CPI同比涨幅有所回落。同样受去年同期对比基数较高影响，PPI同比出现2021年1月以来首次下降。
国家统计局11月9日发布了10月份全国CPI（居民消费价格指数）和PPI（工业生产者出厂价格指数）数据。CPI同比上涨2.1%，环比上涨0.1%。PPI同比由上月上涨0.9%转为下降1.3%，环比由上月下降0.1%转为上涨0.2%。
10月CPI涨幅有所回落，其中食品价格在猪价带动下保持高增长，非食品价格则受服务业疲弱影响维持低位。其中，食品价格上涨7.0%，涨幅比上月回落1.8个百分点。而非食品价格上涨1.1%，涨幅比上月回落0.4个百分点，其中服务价格上涨0.4%，涨幅比上月回落0.1个百分点。
专家表示，扣除食品和能源价格的核心CPI在过去较长一段时间中持续低迷且不断拾阶而下。核心CPI持续趋软，说明社会有效需求仍在弱修复阶段，有效需求相较生产端而言仍偏弱，供需不平衡态势与内外部风险有可能带来通缩压力。
PPI方面，10月份部分行业需求有所增加，全国PPI环比小幅上涨，但受去年同期对比基数较高影响，同比由涨转降。环比结束连续三个月负增长，并创半年高点。其中，生产资料价格由上涨0.6%转为下降2.5%；生活资料价格上涨2.2%，涨幅扩大0.4个百分点。
有研报表示，10月国际油价、铜价均回落，旺季过后煤炭价格亦走弱，基建和保交楼政策发力拉动黑色金属价格有所回升，但2021年同期煤电短缺带来高基数，拖累PPI同比涨幅放缓。

财经词汇划重点
Sustainable aviation fuels(SAF)is a sustainable aviation fuel made from feedstock ranging from used fat, oil and grease to municipal and forestry waste. Compared to fossil jet fuel, SAF has been demonstrated to result in an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions. Therefore, it is considered as a key enabler to contribute to the de-carbonization of aviation sector.
可持续航空燃料是一种可用于商业航空的液体燃料，以废弃的动植物油脂、油料、使用过的食用油、城市生活垃圾和农林废弃物为原料，以可持续方式生产的替代燃料。相较于传统的化石燃料，SAF从原材料收集到最终用户使用的整个过程中产生的碳排量，至少降低80%。应用可持续航空燃料将是未来实现航空业净零排放的关键。
