The narrowing of the deficit was larger than expected. A survey of analysts by CBS Marketwatch.com had produced a consensus of $42.7 billion. The January trade gap was revised slightly higher to $43.5 billion from the initial estimate of $43.1 billion.
Both exports and imports rose in February, but exports rose faster than imports.
February exports rose $3.5 billion, or 4.0 percent, to a record $92.4 billion. This was the biggest increase in exports since October 1996.

Exports of autos and industrial supplies set records in February.
Imports of goods rose 1.7 percent in February to a record $112.3 billion. The increase was led by industrial supplies, which rose 7.4 percent to a record $29.5 billion.
Imports of agricultural products also set a record in February and imports of autos were the second highest on record.
The U.S. petroleum deficit widened 2.5 percent to $11.1 billion. This is the largest monthly petroleum deficit in eleven months.
The value of U.S. crude imports fell to $8.4 billion in February from $8.8 billion the previous month.
The U.S. imported 287.8 million barrels in February, or 9.9 million per day, down from 309.4 million or 10.0 million per day, in January. This is the lowest monthly import level since February 2003. The average price rose to $29.17 from $28.55 in January. This is the highest monthly average price since March 2003.
