While global inflationary pressures are expected to ease somewhat in 2023, inflation is unlikely to decline quickly. The latter is likely to remain elevated compared to pre-Covid levels.

China's bulk commodities market development index reversed its downward trend in December 2022, according to industry data.

China's bulk commodity index came in at 101 percent during the period, up 0.8 percentage points from the previous month, according to the China Logistics and Purchasing Federation.

An index above 100% indicates expansion, while an index below 100% reflects contraction.
