WemaintainourforecastthatCPIdeflationwillendin2024,butlowinflationwillcontinue

thisyear.Theendofdeflationwillbedrivenby:(1)theglobalcommoditypricetrend,asour

(CPIinflationsoftenednotablyfrom2Q23onwards).

notable,whiletherecentpolicyintentiontosupporttrade-inforhomeappliancesandNEVs

someregionsandregulatoryheadwindsectors)alsoweighontheinflationdynamics.Inour

view,consumerconfidenceremainsgenerallysoftamidlingeringconcernsofjob/income

uncertainty,anddomesticdemandconditionshaveyettopickupmomentumonasustained

basis.

Overall,ourforecastforfull-year2024CPIinflationstandsat0.5%.Togetherwiththe

prolongedPPIdeflationpressure,theGDPdeflatormaystayindeflationaryterritorylonger

thanexpected.TheGDPdeflatorhasstayedinnegativeterritoryforfourconsecutive

quarters,cominginat-1.1%oyain1Q24,andwilllikelyremainindeflationzonethroughthe

nexttwoquarters.

credit/bankloanchanneltoprovideproperfundingsupportfortherealeconomy.Thecentral

targetedrealGDPgrowthandinflationrates.Interestingly,regardingtheinflationpicture,the

centralbankmentionedthatthecauseofthecurrentsubduedpricingenvironmentis

insufficientdemandconditionsanddemand-supplyimbalance,ratherthaninsufficient
