I introduce a reduced form two-sided market model to study prediction and identification in two-sided markets. The model generates the hallmark features of two-sided markets: potentially below cost or even negative prices to one side of the market, and the “see-saw” or “waterbed” effect...

The literature argues that industry network effects imply the predictability of industry returns, while the return predictability can estimate the industry network in reverse. The paper employs rolling window adaptive lasso regressions to test the robustness of return predictions, showing the...
