Abstract
⺠We assess the value of sequential decision making in monopoly and duopoly settings. ⺠A monopolist has positive value of flexibility that decreases with uncertainty. ⺠By comparison, a typical duopoly firm suffers loss in value due to competition. ⺠This loss may be mitigated by expanding capacity sequentially. ⺠However, the latter holds only if the duopolist's value of flexibility is higher.
