We predict that the CPI may exceed 3% in some months, but the core for the whole year should be between 2.5% and 2.8%.
Zhu Baoliang: This year there will be a situation of “good macroeconomics but bad microeconomics”
Specifically, the growth rate in the first and second quarters may reach 6.6%. If no measures are taken in the third and fourth quarters, economic growth may fall below 6.5%. This year, the price index has risen year-on-year, and corporate profits will also increase year-on-year. Statistics show that the macroeconomy is performing well. But in fact, life is not easy for enterprises because prices have not increased month-on-month. Companies pay more attention to the month-on-month period. For example, prices this month are higher than last month, and today are higher than yesterday. Therefore, this year’s economic performance is likely to be “good at the macro level but bad at the micro level”.
