European equities are broadly firmer in early trades. In today's highlight, China's August consumer inflation rose by 0.6% y/y, slightly below the expected 0.7%. Food prices, particularly fresh vegetables and pork, significantly contributed to the rise. Notable declines were in airfares and hotel prices. YTD inflation remains at 0.2%, below the government's 3% target. Core inflation fell to 0.3%, its lowest in nearly 3.5 years. PPI declined by 1.8% y/y, marking the steepest drop since April and the 23rd consecutive month of deflation, due to weak demand and falling global commodity prices.Companies Mentioned: Vista Outdoor, Alphabet, Arm Holdings, News Corp, Tesla
