S\u00e3o Paulo \u2013 Brazil had a trade surplus of USD 2.058 billion last week, the result of USD 5.289 billion in exports and USD 3.231 billion in imports.<\/p>\n

In the month, exports have reached USD 15.663 billion, while exports have totaled USD 10.766 billion, resulting in a surplus of USD 4.897 billion. Year-to-date, exports have reached USD 109.295 billion, with imports totaling USD 80.224 billion, resulting in a USD 29.071 billion surplus.<\/p>\n

Last week, exports daily average reached USD 1.057 billion, 12.2% less than the average of June\u2019s third week, due to a 62.1% increase in exports of semi-finished products (wood pulp, ferro-alloys, unwrought zinc, sawn or chipped timber and raw sugar) and 13.4% increase in exports of basic goods (crude oil, beef and poultry, iron ore and cattle).<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, exports of finished products dropped 6.2% due to sales results of iron and steel flat-rolled products, iron and steel flexible pipes, fuel oils, earth-leveling machinery and devices, trailers and semi-trailers.<\/p>\n

Imports dropped 5.6% over the same period of last year, due, mainly, to a reduction of purchases of organic and inorganic chemicals, plastics and products, pharmaceuticals, aluminum and products and precision and optical equipment.<\/p>\n
