The US trade deficit widened to $77.6 billion in May 2026, up from $54.6 billion, driven by a strong dollar and robust imports. This episode examines how the deficit reshapes trade flows for emerging markets, from Korean electronics to Chinese manufactured goods. Lucas and Luna discuss the J-curve effect, currency dynamics, and what the divergence between South Korea's 8% drop and China's 1.6% gain tells investors. They explore which economies benefit from cheaper exports and which face headwinds, all grounded in recent data.
