China’s consumer prices rose more slowly in October, while producer price deflation deepened, even as Beijing doubled down on stimulus policies to prop up its sputtering economy. China unveiled a 10 trillion yuan ($1.4 trillion) package on Friday to ease local government “hidden debt” burdens, rather than directly injecting money into the economy. The consumer price index edged up 0.3% last month from a year earlier, slowing from September’s 0.4% rise and the lowest since June, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Saturday, missing a 0.4% increase estimate in a Reuters poll of economists. CPI dropped 0.3% month-on-month, versus an unchanged outcome in September and below a forecast 0.1% decline.
