Summary

DescriptionU.S. Trade Deficit 2011.png	English: U.S. Trade Deficit Net exports (exports less imports or X-M) is one of the components of GDP. In the U.S., net exports are negative, meaning imports are greater than exports. This is a trade deficit. Mathematically, a trade deficit reduces GDP, other things equal. The U.S. trade deficit decreased from $627.7 billion in 2019 to $617.7 billion in 2018, down $10.9 billion or 1.7%.^[1] The U.S. trade deficit with China (goods only) decreased from $420 billion in 2018 to $346 billion in 2019, down $74 billion or 20%.^[2] The Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED) chart containing the trade deficit and GDP data for the image is available at the citations.^[3] References ↑ U.S. Census Bureau-Annual Trade Highlights-Retrieved October 16, 2016 ↑ U.S. Census Bureau-Trade with China-Retrieved October 16, 2016 ↑ FRED-Trade Deficit and GDP Data Obtaining data The trade deficit data is available here: BEA - Trade News Release.
