In Q1 2026, US seasonally adjusted goods exports reached $565.68 billion, marking a significant quarter-on-quarter increase of 7.58% from the previous value and setting a new historical record. This new high was primarily driven by strong demand for capital goods such as computers, as well as risk-averse sentiment pushing up exports of precious metals like gold. Looking ahead, it is necessary to monitor the impact of a strong US dollar and global protectionism on future export momentum.
