The kinked demand curve is a model used to describe the price-setting behavior of firms in an oligopoly. It suggests that a firm facing a kinked demand curve will experience different price elasticity depending on whether it raises or lowers its prices. This results in a stable market price where firms are reluctant to change prices, anticipating that rivals will not follow suit if they increase prices, but will follow if they decrease prices.
