Investing.com -- U.S.-listed shares in Chinese companies slipped in premarket trading on Monday, as concerns around the health of the world's second-biggest economy mount following weaker than anticipated inflation data.

Online retailers JD.com (NASDAQ: JD) and PDD Holdings (NASDAQ: PDD), as well as web services firm Baidu (NASDAQ: BIDU), saw their shares drop by more than 1%. Electric vehicle makers Nio (NYSE: NIO), Li Auto Inc (NASDAQ: LI) and Xpeng Inc (NYSE: XPEV) also dipped.

Meanwhile, e-commerce giant Alibaba (NYSE: BABA) fell by just under 1%, pulling back from a surge in the stock on Friday. The shares jumped by 8% to close out the last trading week after China fined Alibaba's financial arm Ant Group, a move that some investors interpreted as a sign that Beijing's long-standing crackdown on the country's major corporate players may be coming to an end.

On Friday, the announcement helped bolster the Nasdaq Golden Dragon China Index, a gauge of the performance of publicly-traded businesses in the U.S. that have the majority of their operations conducted in China, by 3.2%.

However, sentiment was dented on Monday after the release of the latest inflation data from the National Bureau of Statistics pointed to sluggishness in the country's post-COVID recovery.

China's producer price index fell by 5.4% annually last month, the sharpest fall since 2015 and steeper than analysts' estimates of 5.0%, as domestic and foreign demand both weakened.

Additionally, consumer prices were flat year-on-year due to an accelerating drop in pork prices. The figure, which had been expected to increase by 0.2%, was the slowest since 2021.
