what is the definition of "market" as per anti trust laws?

Answer 1

It should not differentiate between the common definition and that of antitrust laws. Per Merriam Webster and FindLaw: "The area of economic activity in which buyers and sellers come together and the forces of supply and demand affect prices" The thought behind antitrust is that due to the company's dealings, supply and demand are almost controlled due to unfair competition within the market.
