Abstract: | Companies trapped with investments too big to write off are being forced to chase market share at all costs. For many, there is no escape from dwindling margins. From super- market aisles to airlines, the only clear winners are consumers, who learn to expect ever lower prices. At some companies, the relentless price competition is a signal that maintaining historical profitability will require radical new approaches to the market and to cost structure. |
