# In March, the CPI rose year-on-year, the PPI changed from a decline to an increase, and the configuration logic of the A500 ETF E Fund (159361) was strengthened

This week, the CSI A500 Index rose by 5.1%, the CSI A100 Index rose by 5.0%, and the CSI A50 Index rose by 4.7%.

On April 10, the National Bureau of Statistics released data showing that the CPI in March 2026 increased by 1.0% year-on-year, with industrial consumer goods prices rising by 2.2%, an increase of 1.1 percentage points compared to the previous month; the PPI changed from a year-on-year decline of 0.9% last month to an increase of 0.5%, marking the first increase after 41 consecutive months of decline.

The expansion of industrial consumer goods price increases confirms a moderate recovery in downstream demand. With the rebound in prices resonating with the previous PMI returning to the expansion range, the fundamental support for core broad-based assets is strengthening. The CSI A500 Index, which covers leading companies across various industries, is expected to benefit from the valuation recovery brought about by improved macro expectations.
