The seasonally adjusted trade surplus shrank to EUR 20.0 billion in July from EUR 23.8 billion in June. Meanwhile, economists had expected the surplus to grow to EUR 29.6 billion, data released by Eurostat showed Thursday.
Further, exports fell 1.1 percent month-over-month in July, while imports climbed by 1.4 percent. On a non-seasonally adjusted basis, the trade surplus declined to EUR 25.3 billion in July from EUR 31.1 billion in the corresponding month last year.
