Preemptive Entry and Technology Diffusion: The Market for Drive‐In Theaters
The RAND Journal of Economics, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 471-494, Autumn (Fall) 2026.ABSTRACT This article studies entry preemption in new industries. We first test a key prediction of dynamic entry games: Entry preemption is most relevant in intermediate‐sized markets, where firms face highest uncertainty about future entry. Using US drive‐in theater market (1945–1957) data, we find robust evidence for this non‐monotonic relationship ...

Contemporary Accounting Research, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1628-1650, Fall 2026.ABSTRACT We study how insider trading based on private cost information affects product market outcomes when firms differ in cost variance. In our model, managers exploit firm‐specific cost information to pursue short‐term trading gains, leading them to adjust output decisions and reshape product market competition.

Imitation of succesful behavior in Cournot markets [PDF]
In an experimental standard Cournot Oligopoly we test the importance of models of behavior characterized by imitation of succesful behavior. We find that the players appear to the rather reluctant to imitate.Oligopoly, cournot, bounded rationality, spite

Detecting simple dynamics in Cournot-like models
Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2009 The paper is devoted to the study of dynamics of the so-called Cournot-like models, i.e. \(n\)-dimensional discrete dynamical systems which constitute the mathematical environment for modeling some economic and biological processes. For the interval \(I=[0,1]\) let \(\phi_i:I\to I\), \(i=1,\dots ,n\), be a family of continuous mappings of \(I\) into ...

Reply to Comment on “On the pass‐through rate of the Nutrition North Canada subsidy”
Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, Volume 74, Issue 3, Page 261-267, September 2026.Abstract In Naylor, Deaton, and Ker (2025), we discuss an appropriate econometric method for estimating the pass‐through of the Nutrition North subsidy in the presence of heterogeneous effects and endogenous sampling. Applying this method to the data set compiled by Galloway and Li (2023), who conclude that there is “large leakage” of the subsidy, we ...

What Drives the Price of a Big Mac? Evidence From Local Market Conditions
Growth and Change, Volume 57, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Spatial competition is the strongest determinant of Big Mac prices across the United States. Using 10,585 store‐level observations collected in 2023, we examine how local labor market, geographic characteristics, and market structure shape price variation.

Mixed motives in a Cournot game [PDF]
The paper analyzes a Cournot model with two types of firms: Maximizers of profits and maximizers of relative payoffs. It is shown that the equilibrium is located somewhere between the regular Cournot-Nash equilibrium and the competitive Walrasian (or ...
