China's trade surplus fell 64 percent in February from a year earlier, as imports surged and exports sagged.

China's customs administration said today (Monday) that the trade surplus for February shrank to just eight-point-56 billion dollars from 19-point-five billion in January and 23-point-eight billion a year earlier.

Economists had been expecting a weakening of the export performance, partly as a result of the U.S. economic problems, making the American consumer less likely to buy Chinese goods.

Analysts said record snowstorms and the timing of the Lunar New Year holiday also contributed to the surplus decline.

China's surpluses cause tension with trading partners and threaten to worsen inflation by flooding the financial system with cash.
