Mr. Market

Mental models

Graham's personification of the market as a manic-depressive partner who quotes a price every day and is never offended when you decline. The model turns volatility from a threat into a service: you transact only when his mood misprices the business. Its whole value is that it puts the quote outside your appraisal rather than inside it.
