WTO goods trade indicator hits record high, reflecting strong recovery

The Geneva-based body said its goods trade barometer rose to 110.4 points, the highest since the indicator was first released in July 2016 and up by more than 20 points year-on-year.

“The rise in the barometer reflects both the strength of current trade expansion and the depth of the pandemic-induced shock in 2020,” the WTO said on its website, adding the outlook for world trade continues to be overshadowed by downside risks.
