Agreement: Commercial Law: Corporate Law, Securities Regulation, and Antitrust

Record: kaal:position:2026-08-08-104 · 2026-08-08

Commercial Law: Corporate Law, Securities Regulation, and Antitrust reports that irrational behavior persists even in well-functioning competitive markets. This independently supports the bounded-rationality premise in Kaal's investor-protection claim. The abstract does not specifically address professional investors, complex instruments, or hard-to-value assets.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
