New Zealand has a trade surplus with China. NZ was in the TPPA, but already have a FTA with China. They were trying for one with the US, but the US preferred the TPPA. [1][2]
Since the China FTA came into effect, China has replaced the US as NZ's number 1 trading partner. The US is 4th on that list.[3]

OK I stand corrected Energy and Food but New Zealand is definitely more an exception then a norm. We are running close to 400b trade deficit with China.
