The "Invisible Hand" is considered as an Economic theory. This is a phrase initiated by Adam Smith. This is found in his book "The Wealth of Nations". This phrase denotes the advantage of individual actions and how this contributed to the market force. With this force, reaching the equilibrium of the demand and supply becomes possible. Therefore, the "invisible hand" guides the economy through consumers and producers who work together.
