what do you say about the US Treasury getting involved in dollar-yen exchange rate stabilization? The purpose of US intervention has been to try to stimulate the Japanese economy and try to prod the Japanese to take what Washington considered to be appropriate steps. Whether this policy is correct or incorrect, it is a far cry from what the central bankers in some Asian economies were doing. And the businesses went far beyond dumping, which is generally viewed as a questionable tactic for gaining market share and eventual monopolistic or oligopolistic control of an industry. These companies were acting like hedge funds with government backing. In effect, the government subsidized the business (through pegging the currency to the US dollar), and in the process the businesses destroy foreign competition which enjoyed no such subsidy.
