Oil and cars drive big May U.S. trade gap
The May U.S. trade deficit rose to 7.73 billion as oil and foreign cars fueled the gain. Imports jumped 5.9 percent to 40.52 billion while exports increased 2.3 percent to 32.79 billion. The surge in oil alone accounted for much of the rise, with other manufactured goods and auto imports contributing as well.
