Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy answer and question for Wednesday, April 19, 2017:
Final Jeopardy! category: HISTORIC U.S. LAWS
Final Jeopardy! clue/answer: By barring holding positions at competing firms, 1914’s Clayton Act plugged gaps in this law
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Diana Ascher, a finance system manager from Englewood, New Jersey
Emmett Robinson, an attorney from Greenwich, Ohio
Jamie Newland, a loan co-ordinator from Chicago, Illinois (2-day total: $29,899)

The Sherman Antitrust act of 1890 was instituted to regulate monopolies in the United States. The part of the Clayton Act referenced in the clue made it such that a person could not be on the Board of Directors of competing firms, to the degree that if the two firms in question would be ruled a monopoly per US law if they were to merge, one could not be a Director of both companies.

ToC projection update:
With a projected 82 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 250,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 2.9934 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.3375).
An average of 4.6341 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.6323).
An early cutoff took place 12.721% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
Tim Kutz qualified 63.667% of the time.
Todd Giese qualified 22.390% of the time.
Rob Liguori qualified 4.781% of the time.
Fred Vaughn qualified 0.858% of the time.
(Note: Due to the possibility of a WGA strike, I feel that it is more accurate for ToC projections to add 20 games to the end of the previous projected qualifying period.)
Miscellany:
- This is the sixth time this season in regular play that the Daily Doubles in Double Jeopardy! have been found on consecutive clues (Sept. 15, 20, Oct. 14, 27, & Jan. 11 are the other 5.). On average, since October 2004, it has happened every 56.59 games.
