Us Trade Deficit With China Grows To A Record And It S Likely Even Worse Than The Data Shows




(CNBC) – Despite U.S. President Donald Trump launching a high-stakes trade war against Beijing last year, China on Monday announced that its 2018 trade surplus with Washington was its largest in more than a decade.
China’s surplus with the U.S. grew 17 percent from a year ago to hit $323.32 billion in 2018, according to government data. It was the highest on record dating back to 2006, according to Reuters. The deficit that the U.S. has with China is likely even bigger than these figures indicate since China calculates the numbers using different methods, sometimes excluding goods that end up in the U.S. via other countries.
Exports to the U.S. rose 11.3 percent on-year in 2018, while imports from the U.S. to China rose a meagre 0.7 percent over the same period.
China’s overall trade surplus for 2018 was $351.76 billion, the government said. Exports in the whole of 2018 rose 9.9 percent from 2017 while imports grew 15.8 percent over the same period, official dollar-denominated data showed.
While the surplus with the U.S. may have risen, last year’s overall Chinese trade surplus was the lowest since 2013, even though export growth was the highest since 2011, according to Reuters’ records.
China’s General Administration of Customs said on Monday that the biggest worry in trade this year is external uncertainty and protectionism, forecasting the country’s trade growth may slow in 2019.
Asia’s largest economy is still growing steadily in 2019, but it faces external headwinds, said customs spokesman Li Kuiwen at a scheduled briefing, Reuters reported.

While official data indicated China’s economy held up for much of last year, it now appears to be slowing as production metrics and export orders fall as the country’s trade dispute with the U.S., its largest trading partner, drags on.  
China’s December exports and imports fell
 
China’s overall December exports unexpectedly fell 4.4 percent from a year earlier, the biggest monthly drop in two years, the customs data showed on Monday.
Imports also unexpectedly contracted in December — falling 7.6 percent, marking the biggest decline since July 2016.
That left the country with a trade surplus of $57.06 billion for the month, compared with analysts’ expectations for a surplus of $51.53 billion, up from $44.71 billion in November.
Analysts polled by Reuters had expected December shipments from the world’s largest exporter to have risen 3.0 percent, slowing from 5.4 percent in November.
Import growth had been expected to pick up slightly to 5.0 percent, after cooling to 3.0 percent in the previous month.
Exports fell due to softening global growth and as the drag from U.S. tariffs intensified, while imports also fell due to cooling domestic demand, said Julian Evans-Pritchard, senior China economist at Capital Economics.
China’s December trade surplus with the U.S. fell to $29.87 billion from $35.54 billion in November.
Beyond the tariffs battle with the U.S., China’s economy has been facing its own domestic headwinds. Even before Trump kicked off the latest escalation in trade tensions, Beijing was already trying to manage a slowdown in its economy after decades of breakneck growth.
Both sides have been trying to negotiate a deal, with the latest round of talks between Chinese and U.S. officials concluding last Wednesday.
China’s Commerce Ministry said last Thursday that the talks were extensive and established a foundation for the resolution of each others’ concerns.
The overall outlook is hardly rosy, said Evans-Pritchard.
“With global growth set to cool further this year, exports will remain weak even if China can clinch a trade deal that rows back Trump’s tariffs,” he wrote in a note on Monday.
“Meanwhile, with policy easing unlikely to put a floor beneath domestic economic activity until the second half of this year, import growth is likely to remain subdued,” Evans-Pritchard added.
