The premium natural and organic men’s apparel market
Last month the Wall Street Journal raised the specter of an antitrust challenge to the proposed Jos. A. Bank/Men’s Warehouse merger. Whether a challenge is forthcoming appears to turn, of course, on market definition: An important question in the FTC’s review will be whether it believes the two companies compete in a market that is ...

The Revelations of GM’s Anti-Tesla Letter
As Geoff posted yesterday, a group of 72 distinguished economists and law professors from across the political spectrum released a letter to Chris Christie pointing out the absurdities of New Jersey’s direct distribution ban. I’m heartened that both Governor Christie and his potential rival for the 2016 Republican nomination, Texas Governor Rick Perry, have made statements, ... The Revelations of GM’s Anti-Tesla Letter
Over 70 economists and law professors sign letter opposing anti-Tesla direct automobile distribution ban
Earlier this month New Jersey became the most recent (but likely not the last) state to ban direct sales of automobiles. Although the rule nominally applies more broadly, it is directly aimed at keeping Tesla Motors (or at least its business model) out of New Jersey. Automobile dealers have offered several arguments why the rule ... Over 70 economists and law professors sign letter opposing anti-Tesla direct automobile distribution ban
Murray L. Weidenbaum, R.I.P.
The world of economics and public policy has lost yet another giant. Joining Ronald Coase, James Buchanan, Armen Alchian, and Robert Bork is a man whose name may be less familiar to TOTM readers but whose ideas have been hugely influential, particularly on me. As the first chairman of President Reagan’s Council of Economic Advisers, ... Murray L. Weidenbaum, R.I.P.
Simplifying Small Firm Disclosure
An occasional reader brought to our attention a bill that is fast making its way through the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services. The Small Company Disclosure Simplification Act (H.R. 4167) would exempt emerging growth companies and companies with annual gross revenue less than $250 million from using the eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) structure ... Simplifying Small Firm Disclosure
Dealer protectionism in New Jersey
Last summer I blogged here at TOTM about the protectionist statutes designed to preempt direct distribution of Tesla cars that are proliferating around the country. This week, New Jersey’s Motor Vehicle Commission voted to add New Jersey to the list of states bowing to the politically powerful car dealers’ lobby. Yesterday, I was on Bloomberg’s ...

So What’s Going to Happen to Securities Fraud Class Actions? Some Thoughts on Halliburton
On Wednesday, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral argument in Halliburton v. Erica P. John Fund, a case that could drastically alter the securities fraud landscape. Here are a few thoughts on the issues at stake in the case and a cautious prediction about how the Court will rule. First, some quick background for the ...

Commissioner Wright’s McWane Dissent Illuminates the Law and Economics of Exclusive Dealing
Commissioner Josh Wright’s dissenting statement in the Federal Trade Commission’s recent McWane proceeding is a must-read for anyone interested in the law and economics of exclusive dealing. Wright dissented from the Commission’s holding that McWane Inc.’s “full support” policy constituted unlawful monopolization of the market for domestic pipe fittings. Under the challenged policy, McWane, the ... Commissioner Wright’s McWane Dissent Illuminates the Law and Economics of Exclusive Dealing
McWane: Structure Isn’t Enough
A particularly unsettling aspect of the FTC’s case against McWane is the complaint counsel’s heavy (and seemingly exclusive) reliance on structural factors to prove its case. The FTC has little or no direct evidence of price communications and no econometric evidence suggesting collusion, and has instead spent a good deal of time trying to show ... McWane: Structure Isn’t Enough
McWane: Why Have An Administrative Law Judge?
Two modest offices on the first floor of the FTC building are occupied by the FTC Administrative Law Judge and his staff. Of all of the agencies with an ALJ, the FTC’s operation must be the smallest. The ALJ handles only a handful of trials each year. In the past, the FTC ALJ operation has ... McWane: Why Have An Administrative Law Judge?
Court strikes down Net neutrality rules but grants FCC sweeping new power over Internet
Today the D.C. Circuit struck down most of the FCC’s 2010 Open Internet Order, rejecting rules that required broadband providers to carry all traffic for edge providers (“anti-blocking”) and prevented providers from negotiating deals for prioritized carriage. However, the appeals court did conclude that the FCC has statutory authority to issue “Net Neutrality” rules under ... Court strikes down Net neutrality rules but grants FCC sweeping new power over Internet
FTC at a crossroads: The McWane case
Anyone familiar with the antitrust newstream realizes there is a tremendous amount of controversy about the Federal Trade Commission’s administrative litigation process. Unlike the Antitrust Division which fights its litigation battles in Federal Court, the FTC has a distinct home court advantage. FTC antitrust cases are typically litigated administratively with a trial conducted before an ... FTC at a crossroads: The McWane case
