从存量上看，美国（2560亿美元）仍大大超过中国（1400亿美元）

一份最新报告显示，2017年中企对美投资大幅下滑，从2016年的452亿美元骤降至294亿美元，降幅高达35%，且其中有180亿美元投资还是2016年宣布但在2017年才完成的交易。

中国商务部给出的数据是，2017年中国对外非金融类直接投资1200亿美元，其中对美投资78亿美元，占到总额的6.5%。
　　报告还指出，2017年，因美国财政部下的美国外国投资委员会（CFIUS）的干预，有约80亿美元对美投资最终取消，投资对象涉及半导体和铝业等领域。

　　报告称，2017年中美之间的直接投资（FDI）交易达到了434亿美元，这与2016年同比下滑了28%（2016年两国间FDI为600亿美元）。双向FDI下跌的主要原因在于中国对美投资下降，从2016年的452亿美元降至294亿美元。
