SUMMARY:Balance of Trade (USD)
DESCRIPTION:Previous: -73.3$\\n\\nThe United States has recorded persiste
 nt trade deficits since 1976\, largely reflecting strong demand for impor
 ted industrial supplies\, capital equipment and consumer goods. In 2025\,
  trade dynamics were significantly shaped by the rollout of new tariffs. 
 Imports climbed to record highs in the first half of the year as business
 es accelerated purchases ahead of higher duties. However\, import growth 
 slowed sharply toward year-end\, suggesting that tariffs were beginning t
 o curb demand. Overall\, the US posted a trade deficit of nearly $900 bil
 lion in 2025\, broadly unchanged from the previous year but still among t
 he largest shortfalls since 1960. The widest bilateral goods deficits wer
 e with the European Union ($218.8 billion)\, particularly Ireland and Ger
 many\, followed by China ($202.1 billion)\, Mexico ($196.9 billion)\, Vie
 tnam ($178.2 billion)\, Taiwan ($146.8 billion)\, Thailand ($71.9 billion
 )\, Japan ($63.9 billion)\, India ($58.2 billion)\, South Korea ($56.4 bi
 llion)\, Canada ($46.4 billion)\, Switzerland ($34.3 billion) and Malaysi
 a ($30.8 billion).
