Britain's Trade Deficit Narrowed In June

LINDA WERTHEIMER, HOST:

NPR's business news starts with good numbers for the U.K.

New data this morning shows Britain's trade deficit narrowed more than expected in June, helped by a healthy rise in exports. Exports hit $67 billion in June. That's a new high for the U.K. The strong performance indicates Britain may finally be emerging from years of stagnation. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
