What does the market want?

What does the market want?

The market wants hybrids, not sportscars.
The market wants banks nationalized.
The market wants to go higher.
The market wants more erotic podcasts.
The market wants to rally.
The market wants RBI to lift Mifor ban for inter-bank deals.

We created the market to serve our material needs but it has escaped its bounds and is now operating with a mind of its own. It has a simple, direct mind with uncomplicated desires. What the market most wants, is to grow. And if it is prevented, it lashes out, denying us the benefits it exists to provide. So we scramble to placate it with offerings and incantations and promises that we will repent.

In this relationship, who is the master, and who is the servant?
