The National Bureau of Statistics reported that this was higher than the 5.3% predicted by economists surveyed by Reuters and the 5.0% increase in September. Consumer prices increased by 0.7% in October, below the 0.8% expected by experts. The core inflation rate, excluding food and energy prices, fell to 0.8% in October.",
  "summary": "High energy costs are driving producer prices in China. On an annual basis, the increase was 5.7 percent in October. Prices had already risen significantly in September.",
