On Wednesday from China CPI and PPI figures were published. China’s factory-gate inflation picked up further last month while consumer prices accelerated, suggesting government efforts to reduce overcapacity have gained some traction and alleviating a source of global disinflationary pressure. Producer-price index rose 1.2 percent in October from a year earlier, compared with a 0.9 percent increase estimated by economists in a Bloomberg survey. Consumer-price index increased 2.1 percent, matching the gain forecast by analysts.
