Visse eksportører hævdede, at Kommissionen ikke havde foretaget en tilstrækkelig undersøgelse af, hvilke virkninger det havde haft, at USD og RMB var blevet nedskrevet i forhold til EUR. Disse eksportører hævdede, at eksportørerne som følge af denne nedskrivning af USD og RMB i forhold til EUR i undersøgelsesperioden havde vundet markedsandele i Fællesskabet ved at beholde deres priser i USD, hvilket medførte et fald i prisen udtrykt i EUR. På denne baggrund udtrykte de eksporterende producenter tvivl om, hvorvidt den væsentlige skade, der var forvoldt EF-erhvervsgrenen, skyldtes dumpingimporten eller lavere importpriser som følge af valutanedskrivningen.
Some exporters claimed that the Commission had not sufficiently investigated the effect of the depreciation of the USD and RMB against the EUR. These exporters claimed that, due to the depreciation of the USD and the RMB against the EUR during the IP, the exporters had gained market shares in the Community by keeping their prices in USD, which effectively entailed a reduction in the price expressed in EUR. Based on the foregoing, the exporting producers expressed doubts whether the material injury suffered by the Community industry had been caused by dumped imports or by imports at prices which were lower due to the currency effect.
