BY MT Newswires | ECONOMIC | 12/11/25 08:41 AM EST

08:41 AM EST, 12/11/2025 (MT Newswires) -- The US international trade deficit narrowed to $52.83 billion in September from a $59.27 billion gap in August, compared with a larger $63.1 billion gap expected in a survey compiled by Bloomberg as of 7:10 am ET.

Exports rebounded in the month on large gains in industrial supplies and consumer goods, offset by a large drop in capital goods exports, particularly for computers.

Imports rose slightly in September on a large jump in consumer goods, but computers were also a negative for imports, as were autos and parts.

In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed income securities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, most bond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is not possible.

Lower-quality debt securities generally offer higher yields, but also involve greater risk of default or price changes due to potential changes in the credit quality of the issuer. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to loss.
