Abstract

The paper analyses the effect of uncertainty in duopoly models where capacity constrained firms compete in prices. We show that no pure strategy Nash equilibrium exist in this game. If capacity is endogenous and chosen before prices, this result holds regardless of whether the realisation of demand is known to firms before or after they choose their prices.
