We present a menu-cost pricing model with a large but finite number n of firms. A firm's nominal price increase lowers other firms' relative prices, thereby inducing further nominal price increases. The distribution of these repricing avalanches converges, as n increases to infinity, to a...

Nirei and Scheinkman (2021) proposed an equilibrium model of price adjustments with menu-costs with a finite number of firms and derived a "reproduction number" for repricing and a limit functional form for the distribution of the number of simultaneously price-adjusting firms. We show that the...
