This is a market about the variation of consumer prices in China over the 12-month period ending December 2026, as reported by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) of China. This market will resolve according to the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) during the 12-month period ending December 2026 according to the monthly NBS report. The resolution source for this market will be the NBS Consumer Price Index monthly report released for December 2026 (https://www.stats.gov.cn/english/PressRelease/), currently expected to be released in January 2027. Resolution of this market will take place upon release of the aforementioned data. If no data for the specified month is released by the date the next month's data is scheduled to be released, this market will resolve based on data from the last available month. You can find the relevant figure by locating the report for December 2026 on the Press Releases page (see: https://www.stats.gov.cn/english/PressRelease/), locating the table named "Consumer Price Indexes in December 2026", and finding the consumer price index figure in the column labeled "Growth Rate Y/Y (%)". Note: the resolution source for this market will be the official monthly NBS CPI news release which reports inflation during 12-month periods to only one decimal point (e.g. 1.9%). Thus, this is the level of precision that will be used when resolving the market. For the full release schedule, see: https://www.stats.gov.cn/english/PressRelease/ReleaseCalendar/Recent April 2026 CPI data at 1.2% year-over-year, up from 1.0% in March, has anchored trader consensus around the 1.1–1.5% band for full-year China inflation, now carrying 41.5% market-implied odds. Higher energy and transport costs tied to Middle East supply disruptions have lifted non-food prices, while producer prices turned positive in March for the first time in over three years. Persistent weakness in domestic demand, soft retail sales, and property-sector headwinds continue to limit broader pass-through, keeping core readings near 1.1–1.2%. IMF and analyst forecasts cluster near 1.2% for 2026, with upcoming monthly releases and any further policy support for consumption serving as key near-term catalysts for shifts in these probabilities.
