Cognitive economics and the Market Mind Hypothesis: Exploring the final frontier of economics

Patrick Schotanus

Economic Affairs, 2022, vol. 42, issue 1, 87-114

Abstract: Cognitive economics partners cognitive science and economics: cognitive science teaches economics about mentality (present in markets), whereas economics teaches cognitive science about market forces (present in minds). The shared Market Mind principle is intelligent (sometimes conscious) self‐organisation. Specifically, the Market Mind Hypothesis formalises what investors casually refer to as ‘the market's mind’. Prices are its informational signatures while market mood is its phenomenal experience.
