Trade Balance represents the difference between the goods exported from and imported to Hong Kong during the reported month compared to the previous one. Prices including the goods cost, insurance and transportation are used for the index calculation. A positive balance value indicates a trade surplus, while a negative one hints at a trade deficit. Higher than expected readings can affect the Hong Kong dollar quotes positively.
