	CHAPTER D4. OLIGOPOLISTIC COMPETITION
		There is no doubt that dominant-firm price leadership examples (in the automotive and computer industries, to name but two) can be found, but we venture the guess that they come into being only as a consequence of vigorous antitrust enforcement which constrains the predatory tendencies of the dominant firm.
		Price warfare may occur due to naivete of competitors, or may be initiated deliberately to drive competitors out of business.
		Price leadership may be based on differences in per-unit costs, differences in plant size, differences in market share, or the will of one of the competitors in the market.

		An attractive feature of our methodology is that price leadership can be tested on the basis of time series on retail prices and wholesale prices only.
		To interpret restrictions on the common stochastic trends of retail and wholesale prices, we show that the common stochastic trends and the deviations from the long-run equilibriums must explicitly be assigned to variables in the channel model.

	A Model of Price Leadership Based on Consumer Loyalty (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Abstract: This paper analyses a duopolistic price setting game in which firms have loyal consumer segments, but cannot distinguish them from price sensitive consumers.
		The properties of the price leader equilibria with an exogenously specified leader motivate the construction of a game of timing in which the firm with the larger segment of loyal consumers becomes an endogenous price leader.
		This demonstrates that consumer loyalty may play an important role in establishing the existence and identity of a price leader.
