FX.co ★ US Exports Edge Up to Record High

In March 2025, United States exports experienced a slight increase of 0.2%, reaching a new high of $278.5 billion, primarily propelled by robust shipments of goods. Goods exports saw a rise of $2.5 billion, buoyed by notable increases in sectors such as natural gas ($0.8 billion), nonmonetary gold ($0.7 billion), passenger cars ($0.9 billion), and computer accessories ($0.7 billion). However, these gains were partly mitigated by a decrease of $1.8 billion in civilian aircraft exports. On the services front, there was a decline of $0.9 billion, bringing service exports down to $95.2 billion. The travel sector experienced a significant drop of $1.3 billion, adversely affecting the overall figures, despite the transportation and financial services sectors seeing upticks of $0.3 billion and $0.2 billion, respectively.
