WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Barclays said Wednesday that it cut its second-quarter GDP trading estimate to 1.0% from 1.6% after the trade deficit widened in May. In a note to clients, Barclays blamed the larger-than-expected increase in imports in the month for the downward revision. A higher trade deficit is a drag on GDP. Earlier, the Commerce Department reported that the May trade gap rose 12% to $45 billion in May, well above economists' forecast of a deficit of $40.3 billion.
