However, just last week their top competitor announced that it was launching a similar product. Phillip and Karen are trying to come up with a counter-strategy to make sure their competitor does not gain market share.

 A) predatory pricing.
  B) price gouging.
  C) price discrimination.
  D) price fixing.
  E) deceptive pricing.
