The trade deficit of the month of November in United States in 2019 has fallen to the level which is lowest in the last three years and suggested that the agenda of the administration of Donald Trump for the recalibration of the international trading of goods is beginning to have a major impact.
The deficit had fallen by 8.2% to an amount of $43.1 billion which is the lowest it has been after the month of October of 2016 as per the Department of Commerce on the 7th of January.
The expert of trade Alan Tonelson has said that figures in this morning and the total of the trade deficit in the United States have been heading for their first decline in year-over-year terms since the year 2013 when the growth in United States had been lower by a significant margin than what is likely in this year.
The deficit of trade with China in terms of goods had been a major focus of the agenda that the Trump administration had, has seen a decline of 15.7% to a level of $26.4 billion with the imports seeing a decrease of 9.2 % and the exports seeing an increase of 13.7%
Tonelson has further argued that the figures which are pertaining to the month of November have shown that the hard line which has been maintained by Trump when it comes to China is doing a good job. He further urged the Trump administration to maintain the pressure in the dispute of trade and take a lot more steps for the decoupling of the economies of the two countries.
He feels that this is going to expand the commerce and trade for the country.
