Statistics bureau to release economic data for June

The National Bureau of Statistics will release the economic data for June on Monday, including those related to the consumer price index and the producer price index. The CPI is the main gauge of inflation, while the PPI indicates changes in wholesale prices and a decline can reflect deflation in the industrial sector. In May, the CPI rose by 1.5 percent year-on-year.
