The Brazilian Grand Prix commenced under unconventional circumstances due to heavy rain that postponed qualifying on Saturday, pushing it to Sunday. The wet conditions created significant chaos during qualifying, which saw a record five red flags and damage to five cars. Despite these challenges, four of the damaged cars were repaired in time for the race. However, the situation escalated further during the formation lap when Aston Martin’s Lance Stroll lost control of his car, ending up in the gravel and prompting an aborted start to the race.

This article is a rebuttal to Drew Estes’s “From Darwin to Wall Street: Harnessing Evolutionary Theory for Smarter Investments.” In his post, Estes argues that economics should borrow ideas from evolutionary biology rather than physics. Like Estes, I challenge the philosophical core upon which finance is based. But I make an argument for building investment processes on a theistic worldview.

At the same time, China remains by far the world’s largest steel producer at over a billion tons per year,…
