Shifts in U.S. Merchandise Trade 2004

Riepilogo

The Commission has prepared and published annual reports on U.S. trade shifts in selected industries/commodity areas under investigation No. 332-345 since 1993. The Commission plans to publish the 2004 Web site update in July 2005, which will cover shifts in U.S. trade in 2004 compared with trade in 2003. Comments and suggestions regarding the Web site update to be completed in July 2005 are welcome in written submissions as specified below. The ITC has changed the structure of this year's report, converting exclusively to a Web-based format (with added focus on sectoral issues) that can be accessed at http://www.usitc.gov/tradeshifts/default.htm. This new format includes links to ITC research and other resources allowing quick access to analyses and data, as well as links to other organizations that have related information. Future improvements also anticipate additional features, such as mid-year data and information updates. User feedback on the revised format is encouraged by providing access to the ITC online Reader Satisfaction Survey (http:// reportweb.usitc.gov/reader--survey/readersurvey.html). A CD-ROM version of the report containing 2003 data may be requested by contact
