Abstract: It was another difficult quarter for the state's exporters. The value of Tennessee's third quarter exports fell by more than $500 million from a year ago, down to $7.8 billion. This was a 6.6. percent decline, substantially larger than the fall experienced nationally (a 1.7 percent decline). Tennessee, in fact, ranked 37th among the American states in its export performance. Essentially, it is the same story we saw in the year's second quarter. Tepid global growth, a slowdown in the auto industry, and the effects of the "trade wars" are proving to be very strong headwinds.
