Correct. However, as I stated, they are somewhat related in certain cases, not directly correlated. Also, most would agree that a huge budget deficit is bad. Many don't seem to understand that a trade defecit is not necessarily bad. It means Americans have the income to buy a lot of products that are made overseas. Not necessarily a bad thing. Also, the correlations above can be very weak. For instance, large defecits (which i dont like) dont always mean higher interest rates. Also, a trade imnalance doesnt necessarily mean running uop debt that has to be financed. Lots of flimsy correlations here.
