Math Can’t Explain the Markets

Kinda meaningless and incoherent. Explain seems to be used to mean predict. I&#x27;m not even sure what an explanation of markets would even consist of. And somehow that explanation, if it could be presented, would not be mathematical?<p>&quot;Markets&quot; are asserted to be simple, and then contrasted with climate models, which are asserted to be a conspiracy theory. Even though anyone can read the IPCC report and see what is asserted, measured, or modeled.<p>Then we make another leap to QM and determinism and WFC. To what, try and bolster the unsupported idea that prediction isn&#x27;t possible. I&#x27;m sure author is super familiar with einselection and classical limits.<p>Then as an experimental test, we are asked to predict a single data point of apple revenue and that somehow that prediction is the same as making a climate prediction.<p>Super weak. Author is obsessed with the idea of control. So much so that their thinking is controlled by these bad ideas.

Math is here not for explaining something, it is supposed for talking about.
