菜肉蛋價(jià)格上漲推升我國(guó)8月居民消費(fèi)價(jià)格指數(shù)

China's consumer inflation picked up more than expected in August, mainly driven by food price increases due in part to seasonal factors.

在8月份，我國(guó)消費(fèi)者通貨膨脹超出預(yù)期，主要是因食品價(jià)格上漲所致，季節(jié)因素是食品價(jià)格上漲的部分原因。

The consumer price index (CPI) rose 2.3 percent year-on-year in August, up from 2.1 percent in the previous month, the largest increase since February, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

國(guó)家統(tǒng)計(jì)局稱，8月，居民消費(fèi)價(jià)格指數(shù)(CPI)同比增長(zhǎng)2.3%，漲幅比上月擴(kuò)大0.2個(gè)百分點(diǎn)，是2月以來的最大增幅。

NBS statistician Sheng Guoqing attributed the higher than expected CPI growth to higher food prices in August that have been pushed up by adverse weather and the relatively limited supply of pork.

國(guó)家統(tǒng)計(jì)局統(tǒng)計(jì)師繩國(guó)慶認(rèn)為，CPI增幅超出預(yù)期是因8月天氣惡劣和豬肉供應(yīng)相對(duì)有限，造成食品價(jià)格更高所致。

Food prices went up by 2.4 percent year-on-year in August, according to Sheng.

繩國(guó)慶稱，8月份的食品價(jià)格同比上漲2.4%。

"We expect CPI in September to increase slightly to 2.5 percent year-on-year, led by a continued rise in pork prices and moderate growth of prices of vegetables and fruits," said Haitong Securities analysts Jiang Chao and Li Jinliu.

海通證券分析師姜超和李金柳表示：“由于持續(xù)上漲的豬肉價(jià)格和微漲的蔬菜水果價(jià)格，預(yù)計(jì)9月CPI同比將微升至2.5%。”

The producer price index grew by 4.1 percent year-on-year in August, which is 0.5 percentage points slower than in the previous month, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.

國(guó)家統(tǒng)計(jì)局稱，8月份生產(chǎn)者價(jià)格指數(shù)同比增長(zhǎng)4.1%，漲幅比上月回落了0.5個(gè)百分點(diǎn)。
