Made it a goal to get trade moving (8)
I believe the answer is:
targeted
'made it a goal' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'get trade moving' is the wordplay.
'moving' indicates an anagram.
'get'+'trade'='gettrade'
'gettrade' anagrammed gives 'TARGETED'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for targeted that I've seen before include "Selected as an object to aim at" , "Aimed at, or set as objective" , "Took aim at (8)" .)
