Keywords: ract: In his work on signaling; Spence proposed a dynamic model of a market in which a buyer revises prices in light of experience and in which sellers; with private information about their types; choose utility-maximizing signals given these prices. We follows Spence's suggestion of introducing perturbations into the resulting dynamic process. In a broad class of markets; our model selects a separating equilibrium outcome if and only if the equilibrium outcome satisfies a version of the undefeated equilibrium concept; whereas a pooling equilibrium outcome is selected if and only if the equilibrium outcome is both undefeated and satisfies D1.
