Free AccessMNI New Zealand Posts Trade Deficit In Jun Due To Fuel Imports
By Sophia Rodrigues
SYDNEY (MNI) - New Zealand posted a trade deficit in June due mainly to a
rise in fuel imports, and the second quarter also saw a deficit in seasonally
adjusted terms for the 17th straight quarter.
Data published by Statistics New Zealand Wednesday showed the trade balance
recorded a deficit of NZ$113 million in June, compared with revised surplus of
NZ$208 million in May, and defying expectations for a NZ$175 million surplus.
Both exports and imports rose to record highs for a June month. Exports
rose 4.6% y/y to NZ$4.9 billion and imports rose 13% y/y to NZ$5.0 billion.
Exports were led higher by a rise in meat - mainly lamb, fruit - mainly
kiwifruit, petroleum and products, which offset a 25% fall in milk powder as
volumes dropped.
Imports rose mainly due to a 64% rise in petroleum and products, and a jump
in fishing vessels.
China remained New Zealand's top destination for exports, up 6.2% to NZ$1.1
billion.
In Q2, New Zealand posted a trade deficit of NZ$1.3 billion as exports rose
4.5% q/q to NZ$14.1 billion and imports rose 1.2% q/q to NZ$15.4 billion.
