account deficit

基本解释

But, what is the truth? Have foreigners really stepped away from US assets and if so, how is the US to finance its huge current account deficit?
然而，事实是这样吗？外国投资者真的已经远离美国资产了吗？如果真是这样，美国如何为其巨额经常账户赤字融资呢？
Granted, the distinctions are not always clear cut and sometimes a current-account deficit that looked sustainable may come under unexpected pressure if there is a sudden reversal of capital inflows.
当然，这种区别并非始终界线鲜明，有时如果出现一个资本流入的突然逆转，看上去可持续的经常账户赤字会受到意想不到的压力。
For the U.S. to shrink its massive current-account deficit, it needs to export more and import less -- which means U.S. customers would have to spend more of their income on imports.
对美国来说，为了收缩其庞大的往来账户赤字，它需要出口更多和进口更少，这意味着美国消费正者不得不在进口商品上花费更多的钱。
