Invisible hand

The invisible hand is an idea in economics that suggests that people are guided in their decisions by a kind of invisible force. This invisible force means that even if we don't realize it, our decisions can still be guided by our own self-interest, which can in turn influence the market and lead to the best possible outcome for everyone. It's like an unspoken understanding between buyers and sellers in the economy that works to balance things out, in the same way that your hand would do if it suddenly became invisible.
