In the context of supply function competition with private information, we test in the laboratory whether, as predicted in Bayesian equilibrium, costs that are positively correlated lead to steeper supply functions and less competitive outcomes than do uncorrelated costs. We find that the...

We study experimental multi-unit uniform and discriminatory auctions with demand uncertainty, motivated by the ongoing debate about market design in the electricity industry. We study the effect of asymmetric demand-information in the two auction institutions. In our treatment condition some...

Previous works on asymmetric information in asset markets tend to focus on the potential gains in the asset market itself. We focus on the market for information and conduct an experimental study to explore, in a game of finite but uncertain duration, whether reputation can be an effective...
