Interesting research paper

Next Wednesday, May 16^th, Professor Matt Shum of Johns Hopkins University will be the guest speaker for the GSB Marketing seminar. The title of his presentation is “How Much Competition is a Secondary Market?” (link to the accompanying paper below). I think it might be interesting to many people taking this class. The seminar is from 12:00 to 1:15 pm in Littlefiled 103.

More generally, the GSB marketing group consists of two tracks: one track is behavioral, where people (like me) do psychological research on consumer behavior, and the other track is quantitative, where researchers employ economic (including game-theoretical) models to understand market phenomena.

I hope you’ll find the paper interesting and worthwhile!
