In this paper the standard Euler equation investment model with imperfectly competitive product markets is extended for imperfectly competitive structures on the factor markets: labour markets and markets for investment goods. This extension leads to two additional explanatory variables in the...

In this paper the outlier robust GMM panel data estimator recently proposed by Lucas, van Dijk, and Kloek (1994) is applied to an Euler equation model of firm investment behaviour with imperfectly competitive product markets for a small panel of German nonfinancial stock companies. Plots for...
