Why Trade Collapsed in 2020
This is a series to read year by year, not to summarize with a single trend line. Doing the latter would flatten out real, meaningful movement.
The scale of this drop matches what happened to trade worldwide in 2020, as the pandemic disrupted both the supply side and the demand side of trade at once.
This isn't a uniquely local rebound — global trade recovered broadly in 2021 as pandemic-era restrictions eased and demand returned.
Data like this is rarely a fresh annual count. It is more often a periodic survey with the in-between years estimated — worth knowing before treating every single year as an independent, precise measurement.
This is a small trade volume in absolute terms — at this scale, a single shipment, buyer, or contract can move the national total by a large percentage. Don't read year-to-year swings here as an economy-wide signal.
