Price Wars
War in Ukraine, a global hunger crisis, the West's cost of living crisis - the eruptions of 2022 were all too predictable. In Price Wars, Rupert Russell lays out just how these crises are connected and how many such events plunged the 2010s into a decade of turmoil. Entering the eye of the storm - from the trenches of Russian separatist-controlled Donbas to bomb disposal squads in Mosul to cattle raiders in Kenya - Russell discovers a butterfly effect of chaos in the real world being driven by chaos in the commodities markets. The price of food and oil has the power to bankroll foreign invasions, plunge continents into poverty and spark revolutions, civil wars and refugee crises. And these prices, whistle-blowing hedge fund managers and Nobel Prize winners told him, have become irrational. In this thrilling exposé of the dark financial forces that rule our world, Russell takes us on adventure into the inner workings of global disorder unlike any other.
Understanding the Foundations of Fighting and Winning a Price War in the Digital Age
For decades with the beginning of competition, many organisations compete on the basis of low prices. Price wars, however, represent a fundamentally different dynamic than simply trying to get an edge on price. They begin when competitors aggressively and repeatedly set prices below established sustainable levels. In some cases, organisations that initiate price wars engage in self-destructive behaviour, which leads to downward pricing spirals that alter industry structures. In theory, there are no winners in price wars: The losers of these brutal competitions are often forced out of business, and the survivors have been known to suffer a long-term squeeze in profitability. Research suggest ...
Termination of Price Wars
Michael Bungert investigates the possibility to terminate (non-beneficial) price wars through appropriate signals and analyzes the effect of different types of signals on the price reaction behaviour of a competitor. He demonstrates that all signal types show a significant effect on the probability of a co-operative price reaction.

Price Wars and Managerial Sensemaking
Managers report a high incidence of becoming engaged in price wars they seek to avoid. This dissertation explores how managers make sense of their environments and attend to the stimuli to read situations as ones that involve a price war or are conducive to such behaviors. No research has been conducted on such sensemaking behaviors and their consequences on war-like behaviors among managers. I utilize a sequential mixed-methods design and grounded theory to examine and explain manager engagement in unintentional price wars. I interviewed and collected data from 25 active pricing managers to understand how they make sense of pricing situations and price wars. Avoidance of labeling situations...
