Abstract
The strategic advantages of being the first entrant into a market have been discussed extensively. This paper presents examples of markets in which there is no first entry advantage. Rather, the later entrant always has an advantage even when both deploy equal resources. The necessary conditions for the occurrence of this first entry paradox are presented. 1988 The Ohio State University
