Consider a market game where firms compete using catalogs as strategies. When firms move sequentially in such a game, the resulting game is discontinuous, thus challenging the existence of Nash equilibrium. This paper gives sufficient conditions for the existence of Nash equilibrium in the catalog. Executive compensation contracts are given as an example of catalog strategy.
