U.S. Trade Deficit Reaches March 2025 High
The US goods trade deficit widened to $118.8 billion in July, reaching its highest level since March 2025, representing a 17.2% increase from the previous month. This was driven by a 3.7% rise in imports of capital goods, particularly computers and semiconductors, while exports declined by 2.9%. The deficit reflects fluctuations in US trade caused by global demand for petroleum products, companies stockpiling goods, changes in tariff policies, and the continued strong inflow of artificial intelligence equipment.
