# Invisible Hand Mechanism — coordinates — Accumulation of Stock

## Subject

Invisible Hand Mechanism

## Predicate

coordinates (directs capital allocation without central direction)

## Object

Accumulation of Stock

## Relation Type

coordinates

## VSM Channel

S4 → S3 (distributed environmental intelligence shapes capital allocation decisions)

## Evidence

Book IV, Chapter 2: "He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the
public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it... he intends only
his own security; and by directing that industry in a manner whose produce
may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in
this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end
which was no part of his intention."

## Feedback Role

The Invisible Hand Mechanism is the S4 intelligence function that makes
the Market Price Balancing loop self-organising. Individual capitalists
seeking private profit collectively direct accumulation to where returns
are highest, which (through the market price balancing loop) also serves
as a resource allocation mechanism. This relation explains why the system
does not require a planner — the S4 function is distributed across all
capital owners simultaneously.
