Exports Quotations | Page 2

As today's data confirmed a solid upturn in Chinese demand, which had slowed late last year and early this year, as well as firm demand in the United States, Japanese exports are most likely to maintain brisk gains in the near term.

Things are very much dependent on exports at the moment and the euro may hold the key to Italy's performance.

Things are pretty healthy. The economy is growing at a nice clip, exports are rising and inventories are being accumulated.

The trade surplus figures showed strong exports and domestic demand. This shows the economy is robust enough to withstand a rate increase later this year, supporting the yen.

The strength in exports would continue to come from the sustained recovery in electronics demand, from the gradual recovery in the global electronics cycle, and commodities, especially from higher oil prices.

The strength in manufacturing is increasingly tied to strong demand for exports as well as reasonably good domestic demand. Other economies are doing well and we've still got reasonably good economic growth and inventory rebuilding in the U.S.

The strength of electronics output and exports were one of the pillars supporting the Singapore economy in the first quarter. Services grew strongly as well and that will help the Singapore government achieve its growth forecast this year.

There are reports that all Iraqi exports are running normally. If the worry was that Iraqi exports would cease and they haven't, then there is nothing to worry about.

We welcome in particular the fact that the court confirmed that discriminatory pricing agreements for domestic sales and exports to the detriment of consumers in other member states are an illegal, restrictive business practice.

You have to go with what the data says, so this result is disappointing for the contribution of net exports to GDP in the quarter.

U.S. corn exports to CAFTA countries will benefit from reduced tariffs and duty-free access for corn products.

The order backlog has risen, and this is supporting manufacturing. Exports should continue to drive growth while the domestic economy remains weaker.

The recovery is expanding across the economy. It's not just exports driving the economy anymore.

The recovery remains very fragile. Consumption slowed, investments are still subdued, and exports are having difficulty picking up.

Both exports and domestic demand are on a good footing. Production is likely to improve gradually in the coming months.

We had sales of over NZ$1 billion for the last quarter -- the result of developing new businesses, markets, products & services. Our exports continue to grow with New Zealand export sales for the first half up over 19 percent on the same period last year

Exports are a sizable part of the economy and there's lingering concern about U.S. consumer spending slowing, which is weighing on shares. Sony can't afford any delays that may help its rivals get ahead.

Exports are off in virtually every category. I don't see much near-term improvement for the trade deficit. The trade deficit will probably shave about 0.5 percent off of third quarter Gross Domestic Product.

Exports are starting to firm, which is lending support to industrial production.

Exports are strong and even consumption is beginning to bounce back. Companies appear to be willing to start hiring again.

Exports are struggling to get traction. The monthly report highlights the capacity constraints in Australia. We need a lot more capital investment to alleviate the bottlenecks. Exports will continue to take away from GDP in the third quarter.

Exports are susceptible to the pharmaceuticals number, which is volatile from month to month.

Exports are thriving, but will tail off at the end of the year as the world economy weakens.

Exports have been disappointing. Higher petrol prices and a waning of the housing boom contributed to the recent moderation in household consumption growth.

Exports have maintained a relatively high level of growth because the decline in exports of information technology products has bottomed out -- the key factor which had sent the Japanese economy into a lull,

Exports held up at a solid increase and imports have been in a more moderate range, after skyrocketing in the middle of the year.

Exports increased by such a small amount, it's not enough to tell me the inventory problem is going to go away. We need world economic growth to start picking up.

Exports probably would have improved a little bit but not much, so it's really just a continuation of the past - we're not looking for a dramatic change.

Exports seem to be stalling and there are some signs this is already being felt by industrial production,

Exports should find further support from the pickup in global economic growth.

Exports to Asia are growing on demand for electronic parts, while exports to the United States are growing on shipments of cars.

Exports to Central America from my home State of Nevada grew 56 percent from 2000 to 2004, far higher than the 16 percent average increase.

Exports to the United States should increase over the next few months. The outlook for exports to Asia is slightly less clear ... but overall, I see the trade balance increasing through the rest of the year.

Exports to the U.S. and EU have been a key source of China's GDP growth and that's not a sustainable growth model. The other key concern is whether investment will rebound. If it stays at below 30 percent I'll feel more comfortable.

Exports were flat for a second month running and that has been what is most broken in the trade picture.

With our trading partners slowing down, they're not going to demand a lot of exports from us.

Russia is using strong economic levers. With the growth of oil and gas exports it has become much richer than it was in the 1990s and it is translating this economic might into political influence and power.

The more China exports to the United States, the more the US side benefits.

Sounds like they're going after the container operations. So it wouldn't affect us at Port Canaveral. We're not in the container business. We don't stuff our exports into containers. We just load oranges, juices, and grapefruits and cars right onto the freighters. And our security procedures here are excellent.

Despite three consecutive years of growing U.S. exports to China, our bilateral trade relationship with China today lacks equity, durability and balance in the opportunities it provides. The time has come to readjust our trade policy with respect to China.

Oil has been driving up the Canadian dollar. Energy exports have boosted economic growth, and it continues to be bullish for the Canadian currency.

Oil markets have been a bit irrational in the past week or two with long-term supply concerns affecting short-term prices. Iranian oil exports are unlikely to ever be restricted and certainly not anytime soon.

South Korea has entered a normal recovery track, where economic growth, consumer prices and exports are in better shape.

South Korea is heavily dependent on exports and therefore accepts the general assumption that this trend will continue with no reversal.

Australia's current account is still at an uncomfortable level. We haven't yet seen the big pickup in exports we need to generate a narrowing in the current account.

As a result, net exports contributed positively to the accounting of GDP growth in November.

Although the trade surplus declined for the ninth straight month, both exports and imports were up strongly in December.

They're very good numbers ... most of the growth of the economy over the coming year will come from exports rather than from consumption or perhaps even investment,

Russia does not want to have her oil and gas exports threatened by some of the transit countries, in particular Poland, ... This will increase the volume of Russian gas exports to Europe and will to some extent increase the security of those exports.

Saudi Arabia has supported Wahhabi madrasas in poor countries in Africa and Asia, exporting extremism and intolerance. Saudi Arabia also exports instability with its brutal war in Yemen, intended to check what it sees as Iranian influence.

Our economy, as we expected, is showing a steady recovery, ... Looking from the microeconomic side, exports are doing better than expected while production and consumption is good. Still, facilities investment and construction, we're unsure.

Our economy, as we expected, is showing a steady recovery. Looking from the microeconomic side, exports are doing better than expected while production and consumption is good. Still, facilities investment and construction, we're unsure.

Feeder-calf prices could hold in the mid-$90s at the lows if exports are back to 2.5 billion lbs. and corn prices remain in check. If exports fail to grow, prices will trend lower.

There's only one conclusion: Continuing to bolster labor-intensive production and exports is the only viable means for China to absorb its surplus labor and improve rural living standards.

Why is Caterpillar bad if we create a new job in India or China to receive U.S. exports? It makes no sense to me. We want to drive all the exports we can from the United States. We want to concentrate on all those consumers, outside contractors, customers outside the United States that we possibly can.

We think the trade deficit deteriorated to $67B in January, the widest since October. Petroleum imports likely rose by over $1B due to higher prices - up 6.4%. In real terms, imports were probably close to unchanged. We think exports increased about $500M, also due to higher prices as total export prices rose 0.7%. Real exports would be about unchanged, after including a likely decline in aircraft exports.

The United States may not become a primary, direct consumer of the oil and natural gas exports from Eurasia. But developing these reserves and bringing them to the world markets is a strategic, geopolitical, economic and energy interest for the United States,

The U.N. Security Council would be hurting the world more than it was hurting Iran if it restricted Iranian oil exports. The United Nations might restrict other Iranian exports or limit Iranian imports of military equipment, but I don't see the U.N. Security Council imposing sanctions on Iranian oil.

This decline in exports is consistent with other data indicating that economic activity in most foreign countries remained weak at the start of the year.

A deficit of only $8.4 billion in fact is not as much of a drag on GDP growth. It keeps things faster and also means that American exports continue to remain competitive in a market where the world is growing generally slower than we are.

You need to figure that out because that's what the Customs Bureau uses to figure out exports and imports to our country.

This is good news but we can't say at this point that a recovery is now underway. We want to see first how exports will perform in the next two to three months before we can make any conclusion.

If rural exports lift as expected in coming quarters and support expanded export capacity in the mining sector, the much fabled improvement in Australia's trade accounts will be a step closer.

Imports are about twice as large as exports, so just to stabilize the deficit, exports have to grow twice as fast. That's a pretty tall order. Then you throw oil on top of it.

The Canadian poultry industry is, in general, little dependent on exports or imports, but new provincial rules forcing the confinement of birds make the practice of free-range raising more difficult.

It's imperative that beef exports grow substantially during the next three years in order to keep supplies from becoming burdensome. If the U.S. fails to recapture lost export market share during the remainder of this decade, prices could suffer as a result.

It's very hard for China's exports to fall any time soon.
