The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis reported a $60.3 billion goods and services trade deficit in March 2026, up 4.4% from February as imports surged 2.3% to $381.2 billion amid robust consumer demand, outpacing 2% export growth. This recent widening, following a $901 billion full-year 2025 deficit despite Trump administration tariffs, anchors trader consensus around an 800–900B outcome at 37%, with 900B–1T close behind at 28.5%. Uncertainty over tariff impacts—mixed by a federal trade court ruling against 10% global tariffs last week—combined with strong dollar pressures and energy trade dynamics keeps the race tight. Upcoming April data release and potential executive actions on duties could tip probabilities toward separation.
