Symposium: Antitrust At The Millennium (Part I), Jonathan Baker Jan 2000

Symposium: Antitrust At The Millennium (Part I), Jonathan Baker

Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals

To commemorate the new millennium, the Antitrust Law Journal commissioned essays from a diverse group of antitrust specialists-legal academics, practitioners, and economists. The authors were asked to take a decision or other significant text from antitrust's past and use it as a springboard to discuss some important aspect of antitrust's future. The results of this unique publishing project will be printed in two parts, the first half in Volume 68, Issue 1 (this issue) and the second half in Volume 68, Issue 3 (later this year).

Empirical Methods In Antitrust Litigation: Review And Critique, Jonathan Baker, Daniel Rubinfeld

Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals

The use of empirical methods in antitrust has been growing at an exponential rate. It is now commonplace for multiple regression and other statistical methods to be utilized in merger cases, especially those involving predictions of the price increases that may result from the strategic decisions of the merging firms. These methods are also prominently employed in civil nonmerger investigations by the federal antitrust enforcement agencies (including price fixing, monopolization, and exclusive dealing cases) and in private litigation (including damage claims and class action suits). This article surveys the methodologies that have been used and the range of questions that …


Policy Watch: Developments In Antitrust Economics, Jonathan Baker Jan 1999

Policy Watch: Developments In Antitrust Economics, Jonathan Baker

Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals

During the late 1970s and 1980s, the federal courts transformed antitrust rules and the federal enforcement agencies altered their case selection criteria in response to theories developed by industrial organization economists. These developments in economic thinking, often associated with the Chicago school, led current antitrust law and practice toward a greater skepticism about the relationship between market concentration and market power and a greater recognition of the possible efficiency-enhancing role of vertical agreements (contracts between firms and their customers or suppliers) than was present in the 1950s and 1960s.This survey will begin where those developments leave off by highlighting more …

Why Price Correlations Don't Define Antitrust Markets: On Econometric Algorithms For Market Definition, Jonathan Baker Jan 1987

Why Price Correlations Don't Define Antitrust Markets: On Econometric Algorithms For Market Definition, Jonathan Baker

Working Papers

This paper compares two econometric methods that have been proposed for market definition: price correlations and residual demand curve estimation. Econometric theory is used to demonstrate that price correlations among firms will likely contain little or no information relevant to defining antitrust markets, under the assumption that a hypothetical cartel facing a downward sloping residual demand curve constitutes an antitrust market (defined according to the DOJ Guidelines). Hence price correlation analyses are likely to have little value for antitrust market definition. In terms of the literature on empirical techniques for market definition, this paper shows that if the econometric market …
