arnold, <<Please excuse me for dropping in on this superb thread. I have often wondered if there is a list of all the categories that are included in the trade deficit>> This thread would benefit from your participation as would any you cared to comment on IMO. I do not have all of the answer to your question but I do recall reading that repatriated profits are specifically not included in deficit figures. I can also safely venture a guess that shareholder returns on those companies that operate in foreign locations are excluded as well. Just a couple of the many oversights in that odd science called economics. <G> For someone a bit more industrious then I the following contacts might yield an answer For further information on goods, contact Richard M. Preuss, Foreign Trade Division, Bureau of the Census, on (301) 457-2311; on services, contact Christopher Bach, Bureau of Economic Analysis, on (202) 606-9545. A bit difficult for me considering my location. Best, Gary Davis
