The US trade deficit reached $118.8 billion in July, an increase of $17.4 billion compared to June 2015. The surge, close to 20%, is explained by a 2.9% drop in exports and a 3.7% increase in imports, according to the Department of Commerce. The president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, Austan Goolsbee, warned that the Trump administration's tariffs are creating additional pressure on inflation and complicating the central bank's work.
