trade war scoring ... bloomberg.com China’s Trade With U.S. Fell in 2019, Global Surplus Widened China’s total exports expanded in 2019 on stronger global demand, and trade with the U.S. dropped almost 11% as the trade war hit relations between the two biggest economies. Exports increased 5% in yuan terms in 2019 from a year earlier, while imports rose 1.6%, the customs administration said Tuesday. That widened the trade surplus by 25.4% to 2.92 trillion yuan ($424.6 billion) for the year.The European Union continued to be China’s largest trading partner, and the U.S. dropped to third place behind ASEAN.
