Fascinating thread on judicial review of UMC rulemaking, and another problem the FTC’s noncompete rule will face in court.

I feel people aren’t reading Thom’s quote closely (as maybe FTC didn’t) *between the parties*
This line from par. 7 of @FTC’s Tapestry/Capri complaint is nuts: “A merger is unlawful if it substantially lessens competition between the parties independent of the analysis of market shares, as recognized by [the 2023 Merger Guidelines].” All horizontal mergers do that.
After a busy yr at Cato (thanks, innumerable const'l crises!), I'm headed back to the courtroom & to @PacificLegal. I can't help it. I miss suing the gov (& @EHSlattery). So much respect for the beacon of liberty that is Cato. Looking forward to the future w/PLF! Stay tuned...

Rent Control Rhetoric. Comments on a lovely old essay by Friedman and Stigler. grumpy-economist.com/p/rent-control…
Congratulations to Chuan Yu and co-authors for their publication in AEJ-Micro. Chuan will be joining @UNC_econ after a one-year postdoc at HBS.
The May 2024 issue of AEJ: Microeconomics (16, 2) is now available online at aeaweb.org/issues/759.
Good article, though might have been improved with a sentence explaining what authority the FTC is claiming to be able to enact such a rule.
The FTC's ban on noncompete clauses is set to spur more state action to limit the restrictive covenants, adding momentum to an already expanding landscape of these laws. blawgo.com/2pg85c9
My alliums are doing their thing.
This guy writes in English, not that common for antitrust lawyers. Worth following.
The Anatomy of a Per-Se-Antitrust Violation wp.me/p4mi8F-B
@brianlfrye @JoshWright1977 Comically bad? I have it on good authority from my friends on the left that this is no laughing matter.
@DanielDancrane @JoshWright1977 I mean, you can argue that noncompetes are good policy on the merits. I disagree, but respect it. The idea that the FTC can’t prohibit them? Come on. It can prohibit people from doing uncompetitive things, but it can’t prohibit agreements not to compete? Give me a break.
@DanielDancrane @JoshWright1977 Yeah, both arguments are comically bad. I guess SCOTUS can do whatever it likes. But even justices have a little self-respect.
So excited for my partner, @peterwkingma, whose new book just arrived. If you run a business and need help with cash (or if you just want to know more about working capital), this book’s for you! amazon.com/Cash-King-Main…
Very interesting thread.
Who wants to talk administrative law and antitrust and noncompetes? OK, here we go. What if the sole legal authority the Khan FTC and various defenders of the proposition that the FTC has UMC rulemaking authority rely upon to support the Noncompete Rule -- National Petroleum…
Fascinating thread on judicial review of UMC rulemaking, and another problem the FTC’s noncompete rule will face in court.

So, @revolvingdoorDC: 1) Opposes gov’t employees leaving for the private sector and using skills they gained in gov’t to the benefit of their new employer BUT 2) Supports a categorical ban on companies putting a limited restriction on working for a direct competitor?
I asked a bunch of ad law and antitrust profs for their predictions on fate of FTC non-compete rule. Almost unanimous prediction was invalidation, although different perspectives on how and why. Read the blog! yalejreg.com/nc/predicting-…
