Asked whether his bank would pull back from the leveraged buyout boom that was consuming Wall Street, he explained that as long as the music kept playing in terms of liquidity, everyone had no choice but to keep dancing. He closed with three words that would outlive his career: "We're still dancing." Six weeks later, the music stopped. Not gradually. Not with warning.

At one end of the table, a thirty‑something product manager from Bengaluru is explaining why he’s “re‑allocating exposure into neo‑realty Grade‑A assets.” He talks about cap‑rate compression, WALE, tenant covenants, and IRR bands. He pulls up a dashboard on his phone showing a fractional slice of a warehouse leased to an e‑commerce giant, neatly packaged inside a glossy SPV structure. At the other end, his sixty‑five‑year‑old aunt simply says: “Beta, my bank FD is giving me 7.5% fixed. It’s boring, but it pays on tim...

  Week 1of 12 (V2)  THE ILLUSION OF CERTAINTY  Series:  The Recency Trap & The Capital Horizon Why Funds Deploy the Most Money at the Exact Moment They Should Be Running By Arindam Bose | BeEstates Intelligence | Investor Psychology | JUNE 2026 ⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡⬡  The Night the Cranes Became a Warning At the top of a real estate cycle, the city looks most sane just before it turns irrational. The cranes are everywhere. Every quarterly report is green. “Unprecedented demand” stops sounding like hype and becomes the baseline vocabulary of analysts. Launch events feel like tech IPOs.
