He investigates product assortment, price competition, and the impact of taxes and regulations on market outcomes. He has developed empirical tools widely used by antitrust practitioners.
The available publication, Rising Markups, Rising Prices? (2023), reflects his focus on market power and pricing behavior, analyzing the disconnect between rising firm markups and stagnant producer prices.
