China’s producer price index (PPI), which measures costs of goods at the factory gate, went up 0.9 percent year on year in September 2022, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said. The figure moderated from the 2.3 percent year-on-year increase registered in August. On a monthly basis, China’s PPI fell 0.1 percent in September.
