If I may chime in here with a question Dr. Herbener; does this process of bidding up asset prices make the market or industry more contestable in the long run (provided that the companies are not protected by the state)? I seem to remember that entry is possible when short selling the existing companies stock, but I’m wondering if there are other ways potential entrants could use this to their advantage?
