Trade deficit narrows as exports surge in November
The U S trade gap shrank to 13.2 billion in November, 25 percent better than October, driven by a 9.4 percent export jump to 23.8 billion and a 6 percent drop in imports to 27.0 billion. Analysts credit a weaker dollar and stronger foreign demand, with officials calling the results a sign of improving fundamentals.
