China's consumer inflation quickens in November, producer deflation persists

BEIJING, Dec 10 (Reuters) - China's annual consumer inflation accelerated in November while producer deflation persisted, official data showed on Wednesday, as policymakers extended their campaign to curb overcapacity.

The consumer price index (CPI) rose 0.7% from a year earlier, National Bureau of Statistics data showed, matching a 0.7% expansion in a Reuters poll of economists. It had increased 0.2% in October.

On a monthly basis, CPI dipped 0.1%, versus a 0.2% rise in October and a forecast rise of 0.2%.

The producer prices index (PPI) fell 2.2% year-on-year in November, compared with a 2.1% fall in October and worse than a forecast for a 2.0% drop. (Reporting by Qiaoyi Li, Yukun Zhang and Liz Lee Editing by Shri Navaratnam)

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.
