China Hog Prices Fall 2.7% in Mid-September, Statistics Bureau Says

This is a macro data point, not a crypto or RWA story, but it belongs in the same conversation: the world's largest pork market sets the tone for Chinese consumer inflation, and a mid-month decline in hog prices feeds directly into CPI expectations. That matters for anyone tracking China's monetary stance and, by extension, the liquidity backdrop that alternative assets trade against. The breadth detail is the real signal — more of the 50 monitored materials fell than rose, suggesting softness beyond hogs alone. Whether that disinflationary tilt persists into the next reading is the open question.
