Indonesia's June Trade Surplus is Smallest in Four Months

TRADE BALANCE - JAKARTA. Indonesia's trade surplus narrowed in June to its smallest in four months as exports rose less than expected amid strong import growth, data from the statistics office showed on Monday, after two big copper miners halted shipments.

The June surplus was $2.39 billion, falling short of economists' median forecast of $2.98 billion in a Reuters survey, and May's revised surplus of $2.92 billion.
