Class Thrity Two

Properties of Market Equilibrium:
- When a market is at equilibrium there is no "Money on the table." [no profit opportunities]
-At equilibrium (clearing) the market is efficient, because the smallest number of suppliers will be employed and they will be the most efficient as well.
- Stopping the supply short of equilibrium is robbing the world of profit opportunity. [there is a potential trade that would profit both parties]
