I think B, good question

We have to defend the view that the superstores are responsible for the close of many small firms. B explains how the superstores influenced the market. Although superstores still retain a small share of the market, their advertising did damage to small firms

Superstores pricing has relative effect on other retailers, thus keeping the price low. No matter how small the superstore market is, its effect is big.

B it is. It directly says that superstores force price down through their advertising and thus have a great influence on the retail market
