ITC Country Profiles

http://www.intracen.org/menus/countries.htm

The country profiles produced by the International Trade Center (select a country from the pulldown menu at upper right) offer a wealth of trade data, run through sophisticated analysis tools. Exporters will find the Trade Simulation useful in picking target markets. The Trade Performance Index, Export Performance Structural Graph, and Comparative Advantage information are also fascinating -- this last reveals, based on statistical models, what a country is good at exporting, and what it's not. The top strength for the US? "Non-electronic machinery." Makes sense, though our vote would have been "guns."
