WASHINGTON (MarketWatch)
The U.S. current account deficit rose by $3.8 billion
to $106.1 billion in the first quarter, or 2.7% of gross domestic product on an
annualized basis, the Commerce Department reported Friday
The deficit in the
first three months of the year is much lower than the market consensus, due to
sharp downward revision to the deficit in 2012
In the fourth quarter, the
current account deficit was revised down to $102.3 billion compared with the
prior estimate of $110.4 billion
The increase in the deficit in the first
quarter was due to a drop in the surplus on income and an increase in outflows
of net unilateral transfer
These factors were partially offset by a narrowing
in the deficit on goods and services
As a percentage of GDP, the deficit is
still down sharply from the peak of 6.4% of GDP in the fourth quarter of 2005
But the U.S. has not had an annual current account surplus since 1991

The mathematician of the Complutense University of Madrid, José-Vidal Ruiz Varela, argues that Europe must raise its borrowing limit, leaving its deflationary policy. Meanwhile, USA must correct debt and raise the interest rates. Raising the interest rates in the USA and dropping them in Europe, recovers the European domestic demand and EE.UU may return to invest in Europe, with a stronger dollar, without any problem, generating hundreds of thousands of Jobs
