	Terms of trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"Terms of trade" are sometimes used as a proxy for the relative social welfare of a country, but this heuristic is technically questionable and should be used with extreme caution.
		An improvement in a nation's terms of trade is good for that country in the sense that it has to pay less for the products it imports, that is, it has to give up less exports for the imports it receives.
		Terms of trade should not be used as synonymous with social welfare, or even Pareto economic welfare.

	Coping with Terms-of-Trade Shocks in Developing Countries - Federal Reserve Bank of New York (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-07)
		As expected, the worsening of the terms of trade leads to a substantial depreciation of the domestic currency—7 percent after one year—under a flexible exchange rate but has virtually no effect under a fixed exchange rate (Chart 1, top panel).
		Thus, although the initial fall in Argentina's terms of trade was mostly offset in the latter part of the period under study (with a 10.2 percent rise in 2000), it still had a significant impact on growth.
		However, for a given movement in the terms of trade, the fall in output should always be larger in a country with a fixed exchange rate regime than in a country with a flexible regime.

	Finance & Development, June 2000 - The Duration of Terms of Trade Shocks in Sub-Saharan Africa
		We find that, on average, the persistence of terms of trade shocks varies widely—for about half the sub-Saharan countries, such shocks are short lived (that is, half of the effect of the initial shock typically dissipates in less than four years) and for one-third of the countries such shocks are long lived (that is, permanent).
		We find that the reversion of terms of trade to their mean (as measured by the shock's half-life) typically takes less than four years for 23 of the 42 countries.
		Indeed, uncertainty concerning the typical longevity of terms of trade shocks may have contributed to overborrowing during this period, which is at the root of the current debt problems of many African countries.

	Dynamics of the Trade Balance and the Terms of Trade: The J-Curve?
		The authors provide a theoretical interpretation of two features of international data: the countercyclical movements in net exports and the tendency for the trade balance to be negatively correlated with current and future movements in terms of trade but positively correlated with past movements.
		They document the same properties in a two-country stochastic growth model in which trade fluctuations reflect, in large part, the dynamics of capital formation.
		The authors find that their general-equilibrium perspective is essential: the relation between the trade balance and the terms of trade depends critically on the source of fluctuations.
