Abstract: I revisit the dominant-firm model and discuss its implicit assumption of a sequential move structure. I argue that a simultaneous move structure is often more reasonable and derive an alternative formulation of the model based on this approach.

Keywords: dominant…firm; monopoly with fringe; sequential moves
