The variables show considerable variance, and the correlation matrix indicates low correlation among independent variables. The moderate correlation (r > 0.5) between firm resources and performance is an exception. Consequently, these variables are entered in the models both separately and simultaneously, but the results are mostly unaffected. Since potential collinearity may inflate standard errors, but does not invalidate significant parameter estimates (Darlington, 1990), multicollinearity does not pose a threat to the results that we report.
Tables 2 and 3 report the results for the established and new markets, respectively. The co- efficients indicate the antecedents of competitive move frequency in each market. Tables 4 and 5 are similar, but with competitive moves measured by their diversity.
