so the trade surplus rises if the absolute values of the two elasticities add to more than 1, which is the Marshall-Lerner condition. If the initial trade surplus is positive so X - eM > 0 , the sum of the magnitudes of the elasticities can be less than 1 and the depreciation can still improve the balance of trade, resulting in an even bigger ...
The new system is not founded on free-trade (liberalisation [33] of foreign trade [34]) but rather on the regulation of international trade, in order to eliminate trade imbalances: the nations with a surplus would have a powerful incentive to get rid of it, and in doing so they would automatically clear other nations' deficits.

The EU’s trade surplus with the U.S. rose to a record high of €43.6 billion ($47.3 billion) in the first quarter of 2024, official data shows. The 27% jump from the same period last year ...
The balance of trade improves over time as consumers react, returning to balance at month 3 and rising to a surplus of 150 million at month 4. In economics , the "J curve" is the time path of a country’s trade balance following a devaluation or depreciation of its currency, under a certain set of assumptions.
A measure of total gains from trade is the sum of consumer surplus and producer profits or, more roughly, the increased output from specialization in production with resulting trade. [8] Gains from trade may also refer to net benefits to a country from lowering barriers to trade such as tariffs on imports. [9]
In a healthy economy, the amount borrowed or invested by companies is greater than or equal to the private-sector savings placed into the banking system by consumers. However, if consumers have increased their savings but companies are not investing, a surplus develops in the banking system. Business investment is one of the major components of ...
When trade takes place between two or more states, factors like currency, government policies, economy, judicial system, laws, and markets influence trade. To ease and justify the process of trade between countries of different economic standing in the modern era, some international economic organizations were formed, such as the World Trade ...
