Ireland Balance of Trade
Since 1985, Ireland has consistently posted trade surpluses. The trade surplus increased to an all-time high of EUR 45 billion in 2017, as both exports and imports reached their greatest levels on record. The United States, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Germany were the countries with the largest trade surpluses, while France and the United Kingdom were the countries with the largest trade deficits.
A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the EUR while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the EUR.
