Excerpt
Excerpt: U.S. PRODUCT EXPORTS TO REGIONAL MARKETS. The charts presented in this issue break down U.S. exports of goods by product and market (destination). For each of 14 national or regional markets, one can see the top 10 products (in terms of value). The charts are based on data for calendar year 2001. The product categories reflect end-use classification. More information on end-use and other classification systems is available from the Bureau of the Census. The rankings are mainly determined by the extent of disaggregation in the classification scheme, and thus have limited significance when examined in isolation. For example, all semiconductors are grouped together, whereas industrial machinery is subdivided into 10 categories. This tends to make semiconductors more prominent in the rankings, and industrial machinery less prominent. However, comparisons between markets do reveal variations in the product mix of U.S. exports in different parts of the world.
