Markets for Information: Of Inefficient Firewalls and Efficient Monopolies

Author(s) : CABRALES, Antonio , GOTTARDI, Piero
Description : In this paper we study, within a formal model, market environments where information is costly to acquire and is of use also to potential competitors. Agents may then sell, or buy, reports over the information acquired and choose the trades in the market on the basis of what they learnt. Reports are...

Competition, Hidden information, and Efficiency: an Experiment

Author(s) : Cabrales, Antonio , Charness, Gary
Description : We devise an experiment to explore the effect of different degrees of competition on optimal contracts in a hidden-information context. In our benchmark case, each principal is matched with one agent of unknown type. In our second treatment, a principal can select one of three agents, while in a thi...

Description : In this paper we build a formal model to study market environments where information is costly to acquire and is of use also to potential competitors. In such situations a market for information may form, where reports - of unverifiable quality - over the information acquired are sold. A complete ch...

Equilibrium Selection through Incomplete Information in Coordination Games: An Experimental Study

Author(s) : Nagel, Rosemarie , Cabrales, Antonio , Armenter, Roc
Description : We perform an experiment on a pure coordination game with uncertainty about the payoffs. Our game is closely related to models that have been used in many macroeconomic and financial applications to solve problems of equilibrium indeterminacy. In our experiment each subject receives a noisy signal a...

Estimating Learning Models from Experimental Data

Author(s) : Cabrales, Antonio , García-Fontes, Walter
Description : We study the statistical properties of three estimation methods for a model of learning that is often fitted to experimental data: quadratic deviation measures without unobserved heterogeneity, and maximum likelihood with and without unobserved heterogeneity. After discussing identification issues, ...

Forward Induction and the Excess Capacity Puzzle: An Experimental Investigation

Author(s) : Brandts, Jordi , Cabrales, Antonio , Charness, Gary
Description : While the theoretical industrial organization literature has long argued that excess capacity can be used to deter entry into markets, there is little empirical evidence that incumbent firms effectively behave in this way. Bagwell and Ramey (1996) propose a game with a specific sequence of moves and...
