The list goes on. Anti-trust makes it virtually impossible to actually have a real "monopoly". Coca Cola lives in duopoly with Pepsi and other major beverage conglomerates, but the idea is the same. Having a "moat" is no different from having a monopoly. New players get in the soft drink game with the goal to get acquired down the road, no different from silicon valley startups burning money to get acquired by Google or Amazon.
- huijzer 4y agoA moat is really not a monopoly per se. Major laptop manufacturers all have a durable competitive advantage due to their brand name and economies of scale, but they are all not monopolies. Porsche is also another example. You could argue that any company with a moat is a something-poly but then why even mention the poly and not talk about a moat instead.
