Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When making choices with your money
Your brain plays tricks that aren't so funny
Anchoring to the first price you see
Availability makes recent news seem key
Representative thinking leads you astray
Yesterday's winner won't win today

[Chorus]
Behavioral finance, it's in your mind
Cognitive biases leave logic behind
Emotional pulls make you buy and sell
Know your patterns and invest well
A-R-A-O-C-H that's the cognitive way
F-M-S-E-L-R emotions hold sway

[Verse 2]
Overconfidence makes you think you know
Confirmation bias lets bad ideas grow
Hindsight bias says "I saw it coming"
Framing effects keep your mind running
Mental accounting splits your cash in bins
Status quo says "don't change, just stay in"

[Chorus]
Behavioral finance, it's in your mind
Cognitive biases leave logic behind
Emotional pulls make you buy and sell
Know your patterns and invest well
A-R-A-O-C-H that's the cognitive way
F-M-S-E-L-R emotions hold sway

[Bridge]
Markets move with herding crowds
Momentum builds when voices get loud
Bubbles form from information cascades
Disposition effect keeps bad trades
Loss aversion makes you hold too tight
Regret aversion clouds your sight

[Verse 3]
Portfolio managers need to see
Which biases rule your strategy
Accommodate when you can't change the mind
Moderate when better paths you'll find
IPS construction starts with knowing you
Behavioral profiles guide what advisors do

[Chorus]
Behavioral finance, it's in your mind
Cognitive biases leave logic behind
Emotional pulls make you buy and sell
Know your patterns and invest well
A-R-A-O-C-H that's the cognitive way
F-M-S-E-L-R emotions hold sway

[Outro]
Endowment effect makes you love what's yours
Self-control issues open risky doors
Know yourself before you invest your gold
Behavioral finance helps your story unfold
