Abstract
⺠A model based on experimentation rationalizes new stylized facts in firms' export dynamics. ⺠The model posits that a firm's export profitability is correlated across destinations. ⺠Conditional on survival, fledgling exporters grow fastest at intensive and extensive margins. ⺠A firm is more likely to abandon a new export market if this is the firm's first export destination. ⺠We find strong support for our theoretical predictions using Argentina's customs data.
