Methods of Trade protection

o That allows producers to lower the price3 of local goods and services.

o No matter how low a foreign country sets the price through subsidies it cannot ship
more goods
 Deliberate attempt by country to lower currency value
o Making exports cheaper and more competitive
o China PEG’s its currency
