Antitrust laws are intended to prevent companies from cooperating to prevent competition. The typical way companies do this is by making agreements to fix prices -- that is, they will all charge the same price avoiding price competition between them. They may also agree to collectively lower prices in unison to drive competitors, who are not in the group, out of business.
