This note provides Monte Carlo evidence illustrating that feasible and true GLS estimators of the Baltagi and Griffin (1988) generalized error component model do not have the same sampling behavior. Indeed, while the true GLS estimator is consistent, a feasible GLS estimator need not be, an...

We show the existence of Nash equilibria in a Bertrand oligopoly price competition game using a possibly asymmetric attraction demand model with convex costs under mild assumptions. We show that the equilibrium is unique and globally stable. To our knowledge, this is the first paper to show the...
