    Trade gap hits record high
    Trade gap shows unexpected rise in August to nearly $70 billion, up from previous record high hit in July.
    October 12 2006: 8:36 AM EDT

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The nation's trade gap rose to a record high for the second straight month, according to a government report that showed a bigger trade deficit than expected by Wall Street.

    U.S. imports outstripped exports by $69.9 billion in August, according to the Commerce Department, up from the previous record $68.0 billion level set in July.

    Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had forecast that the trade gap would narrow to $66.5 billion.

    De Chinese regering streeft ernaar om in 2010 geen handelsoverschot meer te hebben. Om dat te bereiken moet de groei van de export de komende jaren flink omlaag. De bedoeling is dat de buitenlandse handel tussen nu en 2010 jaarlijks met 10 procent groeit. De afgelopen jaren lag dat percentage op 25.

    ps: dit gaan ze doen door enkel kwaliteit te exporteren, minderwaardige kwaliteit mag niet meer geexporteerd worden, of ze moeten eerst in kwaliteit verbeteren.

    dat moet dus in het voordeel van de USA spelen.

    Retail sales fall on lower gas prices
    Drop in gasoline prices results in unexpected drop in total retail spending, but excluding gasoline stations, sales rose.
    October 13 2006: 8:41 AM EDT

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Consumer spending fell in September, according to a government report, but a big part of that drop was a result of spending less at the gas pump.

    The Census Bureau reported that retail sales fell 0.4 percent in September, following a revised 0.1 percent rise in August. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had forecast a 0.2 percent rise in sales.

    But gasoline station sales fell 9.3 percent in the month compared to August. And stripping out the spending at gasoline stations, sales rose 0.6 percent.

    Excluding sales from autos, sales fell 0.5 percent in the period. Economists had forecast that sales would be unchanged excluding autos for September.

    The nation's leading retail chains reported generally strong sales in the month, as department stores Kohl's (Charts) and JC Penney's (Charts) and Nordstrom (Charts) had big jumps in sales at stores open at least a year, a closely watched retail measure known as same-store sales. But No. 1 retailer Wal-Mart (Charts) reported only a 1.3 percent gain in same store sales, which was lower than its early reading for the period.

    Chinees handelsoverschot naar beneden? Chinese politici zijn evenals bijvoorbeeld Russische politici betrouwbaar. Zeggen ze alleen maar om de VS te paaien. Dat hun import ook omhoog zal gaan met meer olie en duurdere metalen wil ik wel geloven
    Trade surplus down from record high

    By Jiang Wei (China Daily)
    Updated: 2006-10-13 06:58

    China's monthly trade surplus was narrowed to US$15.3 billion in September from the record high of US$18.8 billion in August.

    But the surplus in September is still the second largest in the first three quarters, the General Administration of Customs said yesterday in releasing the statistics.

    It brought the country's trade surplus to US$109.9 billion in the first nine months, exceeding the US$101.9 billion for all of 2005.

    Exports totalled US$91.64 billion in September, up 30.6 per cent from the same month a year earlier, and imports rose 22 per cent year on year to US$76.34 billion.

    Economists had forecast about 28 per cent rise for exports and 20 per cent rise for imports.

    According to the country's 11th Five-Year Plan (2006-10) for commerce development, which was released recently, China will strive to achieve a balance between exports and imports.

    In a bid to keep trade balanced, the Chinese Government should encourage more imports instead of merely dampening exports, suggested Shen Danyang, a researcher with the Chinese Academy of International Trade and Economic Co-operation, a think tank under the Ministry of Commerce.

    He said a decline in the growth rate of exports would result in a slowdown of GDP growth and loss of thousands of jobs.

    "Increases in imports promote economic growth and create jobs and tax income although they might exert pressure on some industries or sectors," Shen said.

    China's growing trade surplus has been a sore point in its relations with its major trade partners, especially the United States, and has added pressure on the country to allow the value of the renminbi to rise.

    Import increase is expected to help reduce pressure on the renminbi to appreciate, Shen said.

    A Ministry of Commerce official, who declined to be identified, said that "growth in processing trade, which now accounts for about half of the exports, is expected to slow down in the next five years."

    The country has done US$1.27 trillion in foreign trade from January to September, reflecting a year-on-year increase of 24.3 per cent.

    The average annual growth rate of foreign trade from 2001 to 2005 was 24 per cent. Foreign trade is targeted to grow at around 10 per cent year-on-year in the next five years with total imports and exports hitting US$2.3 trillion in 2010.

    The European Union remained the largest trade partner of China, with a bilateral trade volume of US$194.4 billion in the first three quarters, according to the customs administration. Then come the United States, Japan and the Association of South East Asian Nations.

    Coastal regions, such as Guangdong and Jiangsu provinces and Shanghai, topped other regions in foreign trade.

    WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The labor market is on fairly firm footing, according to the latest government report released Friday. Nonfarm payrolls expanded by 92,000 in October, slightly below the 123,000 expected by economists surveyed by MarketWatch. But that is only part of the picture. Job growth in August and September was revised higher by 139,000. The unemployment rate fell to 4.4% in October from 4.6% in the previous month. Economists forecast the unemployment rate to hold steady at 4.6%. This is the lowest unemployment rate since April 2001. Average hourly earnings increased 6 cents, or 0.4% to $16.91. Economists had been expecting a 0.3% gain. Earnings are up 3.9% in the past year. The average workweek rose by six minutes to 33.9 hours. Economists were expecting the workweek to remain unchanged at 33.8 hours.

    November inflation readings unchanged, beating expectations. Details soon.
    Inflation in check
    November Consumer Price Index, core CPI both come in unchanged from previous month, showing far less inflation than forecast.
    December 15 2006: 8:37 AM EST

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Prices paid by consumers stayed in check in November, according to the government's key inflation measure released Friday, as inflation pressures came in well below Wall Street forecasts

    The Consumer Price Index, which measures prices paid at the retail level, was unchanged in November, the Labor Department reported, after falling 0.5 percent in October on falling gasoline prices. Economists surveyed by Briefing.com had forecast a 0.2 percent rise in the CPI.

    The so called core CPI, which strips out volatile food and energy prices, also was unchanged, after a 0.1 percent gain in October. Economists had forecast that more closely-watched reading would be up 0.2 percent as well.

    Investors are paying close attention to inflation readings for clues as to what the Federal Reserve will do on interest rates. When the Fed left rates unchanged Tuesday, its statement noted that "readings on core inflation have been elevated" but that "inflation pressures seem likely to moderate over time."
