Abstract
We study a generalization of the model of a dark market due to Duffie-G\^arleanu- Pedersen [6]. Our market is segmented and involves multiple assets. We show that this market has a unique asymptotically stable equilibrium. In order to establish this result, we use a novel approach inspired by a theory due to McKenzie and Hawkins-Simon. Moreover, we obtain a closed form solution for the price of each asset at which investors trade at equilibrium. We conduct a comparative statics analysis which shows, among other sensitivities, how equilibrium prices respond to the level of interactions between investors.
