MARKETS NEVER SLEEP: A Free-Market Framework for the Algorithmic Economy

The market never sleeps. Neither should your understanding of it. The rise of artificial intelligence, algorithmic trading, and decentralized finance has generated enormous confusion about how economies actually work. Commentators claim AI will replace price discovery. Technologists predict blockchain will obsolete central banks. Governments race to issue digital currencies that would give them complete control over every transaction you conduct. Hayek and Mises saw it coming. All of it. In Markets Never Sleep, author Robert F. Geissler applies the foundational insights of the Austrian and classical schools of economics to the realities of the 24/7 algorithmic economy. From high-frequency trading and AI-set prices to DeFi yield strategies and Central Bank Digital Currencies, the analysis is clear: the wiring has changed. The laws have not. Inside you will discover: - Why the price signal remains civilization's greatest information system - and how algorithms can help or corrupt it - How Austrian Business Cycle Theory predicted the 2022 crypto collapse - and what it says about the next one - Why entrepreneurial judgment cannot be automated, and where the human edge compounds - What sound money means in an era of CBDCs, stablecoins, and quantitative easing - How to read market distortions as entrepreneurial opportunities Whether you are building a business, managing investments, or simply trying to understand the forces reshaping the economy, Markets Never Sleep gives you the framework the mainstream missed.
