Indiana Exports, Third Quarter 2000
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Indiana exports reached $3.98 billion in the third quarter of 2000. That represents a 14.8% increase when compared to the third quarter of 1999. Over the first three quarters of 2000 Indiana exports totaled $12.3 billion, about $2 billion more than sales during the same period in 1999. If this pace continues in the final quarter, Indiana exports would exceed $16 billion for the year — the highest year on record. Strong world economic growth in 2000 has been good for Indiana exports. Despite a high and rising value of the dollar, Indiana exports are well on their way to exceeding the $14 billion export sales of 1999. It is expected that year-end 2000 exports will be 10% to 15% above year-end 1999. Much of Indiana’s success derived from export sales gains to Mexico, the Netherlands, France, Germany and Singapore. Exports to Canada dropped in the third quarter compared to the same quarter in 1999, but that destination remains Indiana’s top export destination. Industries with strong, double-digit export sales growth during the first three quarters of 2000 included Industrial Machinery & Computer Equipment, Food Products, Primary Metals, and Chemicals. Mexico in particular is vital to this performance. Indiana has enjoyed phenomenal growth in exports to that INSIDE this issue:
