Striking evidence: The impact of railway strikes on competition from intercity bus services in Germany
Beestermöller, Matthias Gerhard; Jessen-Thiesen, Levke; … - 2023
This paper investigates the impact of the largest rail strikes in German history on intercity buses - a then newly liberalised market. Using unique booking data of bus services, we exploit variation in rail service cancellations across routes to show that the disruption in rail transport...

Wald Revisited: The Optimal Level of Experimentation
Moscarini, Giuseppe; Smith, Lones - Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics, Yale University - 1998
This paper revisits Wald's (1947) sequential experimentation paradigm, now assuming that an impatient decision maker … irreversible action. We translate this natural discrete time experimentation story into a tractable control of variance for a … continuous time diffusion. Here we robustly characterize the optimal experimentation level: It is rising in the confidence about …
