Imports were also the first positive after Corona 19, while the trade balance reached the highest level in two years due to relatively strong exports.
However, this must be attributed to the fact that there were more working days than last year. The average daily value of exports, taking into account the number of business days, was $ 2.89 billion, a decrease of 4.0% over the previous year, but even taking this into account, it is encouraging that exports reach $ 40 billion and the average daily average of $ 2 billion.

The decrease in average daily exports was also largely affected by the base effect, when average daily exports (2.18 billion dollars) in September last year reached the highest in 2019.
