On August 9, Jin10 data reported that the World Trade Organization released a forecast report on August 8, stating that the global goods trade volume is expected to rise by 0.9% in 2025, higher than the -0.2% contraction predicted in April, but lower than the 2.7% before the tariff increases. The WTO attributed this adjustment to two positive factors: the first is that the United States has imported in advance to avoid the impact of tariffs. U.S. imports surged in the first half of 2025, with a year-on-year increase of 11%. This factor will temporarily boost the trade outlook for 2025; the second positive factor is that the current global macroeconomic outlook is more optimistic than many economists' expectations in April. However, the WTO also pointed out that recent changes in tariffs, especially the higher so-called "reciprocal tariff" rates implemented by the U.S. on August 7, are expected to have an overall negative impact on the global trade outlook. The WTO has lowered its expected growth rate for next year's trade volume from the previous 2.5% to 1.8%.
