Descrição: The most striking feature of the Commerce Department's downward revision of first-quarter gross domestic product, from growth of 1.8% at an annual rate to only 0.9%, was the dramatic widening in the trade deficit. The gap is now calculated to have grown to $71.1 billion from $49 billion in the 4th quarter. Spending on foreign-made goods is increasing proportionally. Canada, Mexico, and China account for 30% of total US imports, but since the first quarter of 1991, they have contributed slightly more than 1/2 of US import growth. Japan seems destined to contribute even less to US import growth because a weaker dollar will lift the price of Japanese imports in the US. The industrial sector is weakening again. In April 1993, factory orders were stagnant, shipments fell, and the order backlog started to shrink again. Companies managed to make money in the first quarter 1993, but the quality of those profits was low. Rising inventory values, partly the result of the inventory surge, accounted for nearly all of the first-quarter gain in book profits.
