Abstract
[3], it has become increasingly popular to view high seller concentration as an important market or industry structural characteristic conferring monopoly power (as generally evidenced or measured by differentially high accounting rates of return on ownership equity) on leading enterprises in such industries. Several studies have claimed support for this thesis. A few have been in disagreement.
