Being subject to dumping can cause some serious harm and lead to intense fights – and no, we’re not talking about the latest celebrity breakup. In the context of trade, politicians will often blame other countries for “dumping” products into the United States. What are they talking about and, how can companies and the government respond to dumping? Well, like any big breakup, it’s complicated. Watch this video with Trade Guy Bill Reinsch to find out more.

Also, check out the new Trade Guys website, tradeguys.csis.org. There, you‘ll find trade trends, rules, lingo, history and more explained through podcasts, videos, data visualizations, and interactive graphics.
