BEIJING, Nov 9 (Reuters) - Chinese consumer prices rose in October while producer price deflation moderated, data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed on Sunday.

The consumer price index edged up 0.2% from the same month a year earlier. That compared with the 0% average forecast in a Reuters poll of economists and a 0.3% decline in September.

On a month-on-month basis, the CPI rose 0.2%. That compared with a 0.1% rise in September and a forecast of no change.

All Fixed Income News

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
