First Brazil Trade Deficit in 8 Years

February 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Brazil Trade

Brazil posted its first Brazil trade deficit in eight years as the global economic crisis takes hold according to Reuters.

The Brazil trade deficit of $518 million compares to a surplus of $922 million just a year earlier.

The key driver to the new Brazil trade deficit is a steep decline in exports plunging 29.2 percent from December and 26.3 percent year-on-year.
