In two months, we had bought $40 billion and sold almost $30 billion, a total of $70 billion in real estate transactions in eight weeks. By the time we were done, we had managed to sell about 65 million square feet at a price of $461 per square foot. By contrast, the final cost to us of the 35 million square feet we kept was just $273 per square foot. We had acted at a scale and speed no one else in global real estate had ever done. We had reduced every bit of risk we could to protect and deliver for our investors.
