The Zhitong Finance App learned that on October 5, a joint survey was conducted by the China IoT Commodity Distribution Branch and Shanghai Steel Federation and other organizations. The China Commodity Price Index (CBPI) for September 2026 released by the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing was 137.6 points, up 4.1% month-on-month and 22.9% year-on-year. Judging from the index's performance, with the arrival of the peak season for traditional production and construction, the accelerated implementation of major projects, and continuous improvement in manufacturing production and market demand, the commodity market sentiment level further improved, laying a good foundation for the smooth operation of the economy in the fourth quarter. However, at present, the risk of external imports is still high. Prices of raw materials in some industries are rising rapidly, and the pressure on downstream enterprises to produce and operate is increasing. To consolidate the positive trend of the market, it is still necessary to strengthen monitoring the operation of key commodity markets, enhance risk prevention and mitigation capabilities, and further release the endogenous driving force of economic growth.
