Description

China's consumer price index rose less than one percent for the 2nd straight month in March.The country's National Bureau of Statistics says the consumer price index increased 0.9 percent last month from a year earlier. That's up one-tenth of a percentage point from February.Healthcare costs were higher, but prices of cars, smartphones, and other durable goods fell further.The Chinese government set its consumer price inflation target for this year at around 3 percent.An analyst says the sluggish prices reflect a tendency among consumers to curb spending as businesses are downsizing, fueling uncertainties over the outlook on employment and income.China's producer price index grew 7.6 percent year-on-year, topping the 7 percent level for the 2nd month in a row. Expanded investment in infrastructure boosted demand for coal and steel products.
