FX.co ★ US Exports Fall from Record High

In November 2025, the United States experienced a decrease in exports of goods and services by $10.9 billion, or 3.6%, totaling $292.1 billion. This decline followed the record high of $303.0 billion in October. Specifically, goods exports decreased by $11.1 billion, reaching $185.6 billion. This drop was predominantly driven by a $6.1 billion decrease in industrial supplies and materials, with notable reductions in nonmonetary gold, other precious metals, and crude oil. Exports of consumer goods also saw a decline of $3.1 billion, primarily due to reduced shipments of pharmaceuticals. Additionally, exports in other goods fell by $1.3 billion. In contrast, the export of services experienced a slight increase of $0.2 billion, amounting to $106.4 billion. This upturn was bolstered by growth in travel, charges for the use of intellectual property, and other business services, although exports related to government goods and services and financial services saw a decline.
