As the world's second-largest importer, the United States most important imports are capital goods accounting for 22% of the total, and consumer products accounting for 21% of the total. Other categories include automotive vehicles, parts, and engines (12%), as well as foods, feeds, and beverages (5%). Accounting for 21% of overall imports are shipments from China, followed by those from Mexico (14%), Canada (13%), Japan (6%), and Germany (5%).

A higher than expected figure should be seen as positive (bullish) for the USD while a lower than expected figure should be seen as negative (bearish) for the USD.
