Boycott Japan again little kids?
Alan Harrison
Well, I guess China and South Korea are only doing what Japan used to do.
Desert Tortoise
Absent a showing that their governments are in some fashion subsidizing the wire makers in China and South Korea I find the argument of the Japanese manufacturers specious. Ask why these companies, especially the South Korean ones as South Korea is a high wage nation, can sell wire at lower prices than Japanese companies and still operate profitably? All three nations pay the same price for iron ore. The article does not mentions the Chinese or South Korean firms being subsidized. Sounds more like a price war. Let the Japanese companies cut their prices and see who outlasts who. If the prices the South Koreans are charging are really below cost they cannot maintain them indefinitely.
