What will be an ideal response?

The Celler-Kefauver Act of 1950 amended Section 7 of the Clayton Act that had prohibited firms from acquiring the stock of competitors when this would reduce competition. This section had a loophole through which firms could accomplish their purpose by acquiring the physical assets rather than stock of a competing company. The Celler-Kefauver Act closed that loophole.
