Competitive dynamics across strategic groups: a literature review and validation by quantitative evidence of operation data
by Kuangnen Cheng
International Journal of Business Environment (IJBE), Vol. 9, No. 4, 2017

Abstract: This research intends to: 1) critically evaluate and summarise recent years' literature of competitive dynamics across strategic groups in terms of competition mechanisms, particularly focusing on mobility barriers, multimarket contact and mutual forbearance; 2) validate the aforementioned competition mechanisms by analysing operation data, explicitly, inventory and pricing strategy from the US domestic airline industry; 3) offer explanations to inconsistencies revealed from the quantitative evidence to provide a better understanding of these competition mechanisms.
