Once Unimaginable, Oil Flirts With Being Top U.S. Export
Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin Oil is flirting with becoming the nation’s most valuable export, just five years after accounting for more than 1% of all U.S. exports for the very first time. If this were to happen it would certainly be the first time in decades, if not ever. While it won’t happen this year, if ever, it today ranks second among some 1,200 export categories, second only to gasoline and other refined petroleum products. It has now passed the civilian aircraft category, the perennial No. 1 for many years. Oil’s percentage of total U.S. exports has increased fivefold in just five years, to 5.3%, according to the latest U.S. Census Bureau data available. With top-ranked refined petroleum products at 6.4%, the value of oil exports is little more than a percentage point from the top spot. This is the fourth in a series of columns about the nation’s exports. It follows similar series I did for the countries that are the nation’s top … [Read more...] about Once Unimaginable, Oil Flirts With Being Top U.S. Export
Ringgit settles flat vs US dollar on Aug 17 as inflation fears cloud sentiment

At 6pm, the local currency stood at 4.4660/4685 versus the greenback from Tuesday’s close of 4.4660/4680. The United States Commerce Department data showed construction of new homes hit 18-month lows in July. The data pointed out that new residential construction in the US fell 9.6% last month to 1.45 million, suggesting that the real estate market is struggling more than expected, and this could generate further inflation. A trader said this has further boosted the greenback’s safe-haven appeal, ahead of the release of the Fed’s July meeting minutes and US July retail sales data later on Wednesday that could give further clues about the pace of future interest rate hikes. He said Fed officials have signalled the need for more … [Read more...] about Ringgit settles flat vs US dollar on Aug 17 as inflation fears cloud sentiment
