摘要：If Adam Smith's invisible hands exist, why do bubbles in the financial markets develop and burst. Why do we even care about undervalued or overvalued stocks. Why do we have seasonality in the financial markets. If the invisible hand exists, why did the market mechanism failed to be a safeguard against the housing bubble. This paper will investigate the above questions. However, this paper will also examine, in brief, government intervention in the marketplace, justifying greed in accordance with Adam Smith's thought, and existence of free market since those issues are very relevant for discussing the main proposition of this paper, i.e., why does the market fail, if the invisible hand exist
