China producer price deflation deepens as US trade war bites
SHARE

The Chinese economy is facing challenges as factory gate deflation hit a two-year low last month, attributed to factors such as the ongoing trade war with the US and intense competition in the manufacturing sector. Producer price inflation dropped by 3.6% year on year in June, exceeding analyst expectations and marking the weakest reading in 23 months.

In contrast, consumer prices saw a slight increase of 0.1% in June, signaling the first growth since January and surpassing predictions of flat prices. The Chinese government has been focusing on stimulating domestic consumption to counter economic weaknesses like industrial oversupply and a slowdown in the property market.

However, the positive consumer price inflation is overshadowed by concerns about overcapacity in upstream sectors, prompting authorities to implement policies to address the issue. Lower energy and raw material costs have contributed to producer price deflation, but the trade war with the US has also played a significant role in driving down prices.

Export-oriented industries such as computers, communications, and electronics have been particularly affected by price pressure, with prices falling significantly in sectors like solar power equipment and electronic components. This ongoing price contraction highlights Beijing’s worries about deflationary pressures spreading across various industries, especially in sectors like electric vehicles where brands are competing fiercely for market share.

Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for measures to address “disorderly” price competition and combat destructive price wars. State media have also intensified their criticism of “involution,” referring to harmful price wars that undermine market stability. The government’s efforts to tackle deflation and overcapacity are starting to show some positive results, with policies aimed at boosting consumption leading to price rebounds in certain essential goods.

Overall, the Chinese economy is facing a complex mix of challenges, from trade tensions with the US to internal issues like overcapacity and price competition. Policymakers are working to strike a balance between supporting economic growth and addressing structural issues to ensure long-term stability and sustainability.
