America s trade deficit hits all-time high [external]
The U.S. trade deficit soared to an all-time high of $725.8 billion in 2005, pushed upward by record imports of oil, food, cars and other consumer goods. The deficit with China hit an all-time high as did America s deficits with Japan, Europe, OPEC, Canada, Mexico and South and Central America.
