Slight delay in the release by the source. Exports fell by 0.9% on the month while imports rose by 5.8% on the month, leading to the larger trade deficit in July. Despite the fall in exports, trade conditions - especially imports - are still keeping on the recovery path for the most part to start Q3 and that's a positive signal at least.
