Are Trading Costs Invisible in Trading Decisions?
The Journal of Trading, 2008We examine whether or not professional traders recognize transaction costs when making trade decisions. In both single and multi-period settings, professional traders are far more reluctant to realize a gross loss rather than an actual loss (net of transaction costs).

Sunk Costs and Trade Liberalisation
The Economic Journal, 1992A model of vertical product differentiation is applied to the study of trade between two countries of differing sizes. Firms in the small country choose lower-quality products in autarky. Unlike A. Shaked and J. Sutton (1984), welfare effects of trade are fully analyzed and shown to depend on the degree of sunkness of costs.

Estimation of trading costs: Trade indicator models revisited [PDF]
, 2014 It is a stylized fact that trade indicator models (e.g. Madhavan, Richardson, and Roomans (1997) and Huang and Stoll (1997)) underestimate the bid-ask spread. We argue that this negative bias is due to an endogeneity problem which is caused by a negative correlation between the arrival of public information and trade direction.

Trade Costs versus Urban Costs
2004We analyse how the interplay between urban costs, wage wedges and trade costs may affect the inter-regional location of firms as well as the intra-urban location, within the central business district or in a secondary employment centre (SEC) of the selected region. In this way we investigate, on the one hand, how trade may affect the internal structure
