RE: Market Structure #5 - Monopoly

in #economics6 years ago

Nowadays we can see the Firm Monopoly means, limited firms are controlling the market means, only few firm products are dominating the market and this is due to the technological development but vast market monopoly is not good for the many means, when we see that monopoly firms are dominating in market then small businesses get hurt because small businesses lack the technological aspect and funds too so, we have to understand that monopoly is good when it comes to specific product or service but when monopoly enters into the general market competition then in my opinion it's not good.

Thanks for sharing this post with us and wishing you an great day. Stay blessed. 🙂

There are some markets that have very high infrastructure costs where it is close to impossible to have many firms. I would expect a monopoly or possibly some form of oligopoly for these markets. Most markets fit more comfortably into monopolistic competition with many firms competing and cooperating to achieve greater efficiency. I also prefer markets with many firms as that means there are many entrepreneurs and more incentive to succeed.

True and thanks for your kind response with your more insightful thoughts. Stay blessed. 🙂
