Which of the following statements about the market maneuvering for buyer patronage that goes on among rival

sellers of a product or service is false?

A market is a competitive battlefield where the winners are usually companies with a large market share of

industry sales and the losers are companies with a small market share.

The ongoing jockeying of rivals leads to some companies gaining or losing momentum in the marketplace

based on the success or failure of their latest competitive efforts and maneuvering in the marketplace.

When one industry competitor makes a new strategic move or boosts its competitive efforts in ways that

yield good results, its rivals typically respond with offensive or defensive countermoves of their own.

The ever$-$changing competitive maneuvering among industry rivals produces a continually evolving

competitive landscape where the market battle ebbs and flows, sometimes takes unpredictable twists and

turns, and produces winners and losers.

Each competing company endeavors to deploy whatever means in its business arsenal it believes will attract

and retain buyers, enhance its competitive strength vis$-$a$-$vis rivals, and yield good profits.
