Recent Trends in U.S. Services Trade (Annual Reports) 1998 to date
http://www.usitc.gov/ind_econ_ana/research_ana/Ongoing_Inv/recent_trends.htm
[excerpt from 2007]
The report highlights the services and geographic markets that contributed most substantially
to recent services trade performance. Separate chapters on particular services—architectural,
engineering, and construction (A/E/C), audiovisual, computer and related, electricity, health
care, retail, securities, and telecommunication services—describe how each service is traded,
compare recent trade performance to historical trends, identify trends and issues affecting
competitive conditions in the industry, and summarize WTO members' positions on the
selected services as submitted for consideration at WTO negotiations.
