美国贸易赤字在3月达到创纪录的1 455亿美元,因为进口在关税大幅上涨前猛增。 U.S. trade deficit reaches record $140.5 billion in March as imports surge ahead of tariff hikes.

美国贸易赤字在3月创历史新高,达到1 455亿美元,主要原因是企业和消费者在可能提高关税之前储存货物。 The US trade deficit hit a record high of $140.5 billion in March, largely due to businesses and consumers stockpiling goods ahead of potential tariff increases. 进口猛增至近4190亿美元,出口约为2785亿美元。 Imports surged to nearly $419 billion, while exports were around $278.5 billion. 这一激增反映了避免关税的努力,并使人们担心可能出现短缺和价格上涨。 This spike reflects efforts to avoid tariffs and has raised concerns about possible shortages and price hikes. 尽管白宫声称关税将有益于经济,但经济学家警告说可能的负面影响,包括经济不确定性和增长放缓。 Despite the White House’s claims that tariffs will benefit the economy, economists warn of potential negative impacts, including economic uncertainty and slower growth.
