In trading activities, there is a concept that confuses some people and many times creates severe differences between trading partners: dumping. The term dumping is applied when one country diminishes the price of sale of its exports to have some market share. The price is always fewer than the price of the product sold in that country or even below the cost of production. This represents an enormous disadvantage to the other country. That is why the other country has to impose compensatory charges or imported quota to those products.
