Abstract: Reciprocal dumping occurs in intraindustry trade (IIT) when domestic and foreign firms that have market (monopoly) power effect cross hauling through international price discrimination. Data relating to 355 U.S. four-digit SIC manufacturing industries were used to test the existence of the necessary (but not sufficient) characteristics for reciprocal dumping of (1) intraindustry trade, (2) monopolistic firms, and (3) high profits. These characteristics were found not to exist among U.S. manufacturing industries.
