The Noodle Man of Edo is an allegory that forms an antithesis to the Mr. Market character popularized by value investor Benjamin Graham.^[1] The Noodle Man of Edo (a shop owner) represents a "perfect" (though flawed and human) investor, who wisely buys his partner's shares and/or expands his operations during times of pessimism.^[2]

The allegory comes from the book The Intelligent Investor's Mind, which examines the cognitive strategies of legendary Wall Street investors, including Benjamin Graham and his protégé, Warren Buffett.^[3]

Edo was the name of Tokyo, Japan before the Meiji Restoration.
