Trade Balance

Australian Trade Balance

Trade Balance compares the total value of imports and the total value of exports for the reporting period. A negative value indicates that more goods were imported than were exported (trade deficit) - conversely, a positive trade balance means that exports exceeded imports (trade surplus). This report is used by currency investors to determine demand for the dollar.
