China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing: China's bulk commodity price index rose 4.1% month-on-month in September.

According to the Zhitong Finance APP, on October 5, the China Bulk Commodity Price Index (CBPI) for September 2026, jointly surveyed by the Bulk Commodity Circulation Branch of the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing and Shanghai SteelUnion and other units, and released by the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing, stood at 137.6 points, up 4.1% month-on-month and up 22.9% year-on-year. Judging from the index performance, with the arrival of the traditional peak season for production and construction, the accelerated implementation of major projects, and the continued improvement in manufacturing production and market demand, the prosperity level of the bulk commodity market has further improved, laying a good foundation for the stable operation of the economy in the fourth quarter. However, external imported risks remain relatively high at present, raw material prices in some industries are rising rapidly, and the production and operating pressure on downstream enterprises has increased somewhat. To consolidate the market's positive operating momentum, it is still necessary to strengthen the monitoring of the operation of key bulk commodity markets, enhance the capacity to prevent and defuse risks, and further unleash the endogenous driving force for economic growth.
