Goods Trade Balance reflects the difference between exported and imported goods in the given month, in monetary terms. If a country imports more goods than it exports, a trade deficit is formed, otherwise there is a surplus.

The indicator interpretation and its impact on JPY depend on the GDP and current economic conditions.
