Answer 1

This type of agreement is a violation of the Sherman Act.

A piece of antitrust law from the United States, the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, established the idea of unlimited competition between companies. It was authorized by Congress, and its main author is Senator John Sherman. The Sherman Act forbids "any contract, combination, or conspiracy in restraint of trade," as well as "every monopolization, attempted monopolization, conspiracy, or combination to monopolize." In order to avoid monopolistic alliances that impede trade and erode economic competition, the Sherman Antitrust Act was created in 1890. It prohibits both formal cartels and attempts to monopolize any sector of American commerce.
