Chinese Exports Swell Ahead of US Tariffs That Will Snarl Trade
China's exports rebounded in March, providing a boost to the economy ahead of the massive tariff hikes imposed against it by the US this month.
Exports in dollar terms rose 12.4% from a year earlier, the customs authority said Monday, well above the 4.6% gain projected by economists. Imports slumped 4.3%, worse than the 2.1% forecast decline. That left a trade surplus of $102.6 billion last month.
