With how expensive construction, interest, maintenance, & taxation are these days. Real estate in the west is also just long term consumption masqueraded as investment opportunities for the average person. Holding property as a young person relying on debt in 2023 is so not worth it
@@davepergola 🤣🤣🤣 Of course it is great. Owning your residence is the single greatest wealth building decision you can ever make. In 2019, homeowners in the U.S. had a median net worth of $255,000, while renters had a net worth of just $6,300. That's a difference of 40x. It is obvious from your ignorant comment your net worth is in the lower of these two categories. Enjoy being poor.

The fact that there is already an excessive amount of demand awaiting its absorption, despite how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, is another reason why it is less likely to occur that way. 2008 saw no one, at least not the broad public, making this forecast, as I'll explain below. The ownership rate was noted to have peaked in 2004 in the other comment. Having previously peaked in the second quarter of 2020, we are currently at the median level. Between 2008 and 2012, it dropped by 3%, and by the second quarter of 2020, it had dropped from 68 to 65.
You're not doing anything wrong; the problem is that you don't have the knowledge needed to succeed in a challenging market. Only highly qualified professionals who had to experience the 2008 financial crisis could hope to earn a high salary in these challenging conditions.
@lowcostfresh2266 Actually, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to mention this, but I'd recommend looking up Laurel Dell Sroufe because she was a big deal in 2020. She manages my portfolio and serves as both my coach and my manager.

It is difficult to make exact projections for the housing market as it is still unclear how quickly or to what degree the Federal Reserve will reduce inflation and borrowing costs without having a substantial negative impact on demand from consumers for anything from houses to cars.
I recently sold my home in the Boca Grande area and am considering investing a lump sum into the stock market before the anticipated rebound, couple of folks have been discussing a potential May rally, speculating on which stocks may experience substantial growth during the festive season. Do you have any insight into which stocks these might be?
I wholeheartedly concur, which is why I appreciate giving an investment coach the power of decision-making. Given their specialized expertise and education, as well as the fact that each and every one of their skills is centered on harnessing risk for its asymmetrical potential and controlling it as a buffer against certain unfavorable developments, it is practically impossible for them to underperform. I have made over 1.5 million dollars working with an investment coach for more than two years.
Well, there are a few out there who know what they are doing. I tried a few in the past years, but I’ve been with Margaret Johnson Arndt for the last five years or so, and her returns have been pretty much amazing.

The bigger problem is consumer spending. There are now tens of millions of middle class Chinese people who are paying a mortgage on an apartment that is not finished, and will probably never be finished, as well as paying rent at the same time. This drastically cuts into what they can spend on other stuff, which keeps the economy low. The chinese real estate market has been a sham for 20 years, and the government looked the other way because it made GDP growth look good. The same collapse is going to happen with their EV markets where they are also scamming the GDP numbers by recycling cars to inflate sales numbers. You buy an EV, get the government subsidy, then immediately strip the battery and other expensive parts and sell them back to the car manufacturer and end up with a profit. The car manufacturer then makes, what is considered a ' new car' with the previous cars battery and sells it as a new car. This works as long as the subsidy is big enough, and there are fields of tens of thousands of new EVs that have had their batteries removed.
Exactly. They're also deliberately removing the context of the overall state of the global economy, and how every country is struggling with immense inflationary pressures. They're acting that China's decline is somehow isolated to its own problems, and not additionally a systemic fault of everything else collapsing.
@@alexgibb8406 Do you think the stock market is the same as the economy? News flash: the stock market is just an indicator- a temperature gauge, if you will. The real pain will come when mass layoffs, bank runs and bankruptcy and deflation hit.

The situation in China is MUCH different than in the rest of the world. In China, people don't have access to a stock market or crypto trading. I don't even know if you can buy silver and gold in China. The only real way to invest money is in real estate. And it was the CCP and the real estate companies they control that built these cities that nobody lives in. It served two purposes. It gave people something to invest in, and it let the CCP claim their economy was growing really fast. But now, anyone with enough money to invest in a property already has and the properties themselves are just rotting on the vine, because nobody has, or will, live in them.
Real estate is no longer a good investment. With collapsing populations, there’s nobody to create demand. Boomer wealth was mainly created by populations’ expansions. Now that trend is reversed. And by 2080, those markets will collapse worldwide.
In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not strongly reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.
This is true. Particularly in the stock market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
Very true, I find myself lucky enough exposed to money management at an early age. Worked full time when I was 19, purchased first home at 28, fast forward time... I'm 50 now, got laid off March 2020 amidst lockdown, a blessing in disguise. At once, I consulted an advisor to stay afloat and with subsequent investments, I'm only 15% short of $1m as of today.
This is impressive. Would love to grow my reserve regardless of the economy situation, my 401k has lost everything accrued since early 2019, at this point, I'm in need of guidance, can you point me?

Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web, and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
Going forward I don't see people being stupid enough to put down deposits on unbuilt property. So many people have been burned. And they're even expected to pay mortgages on these unbuilt properties. It's insanity.
I'll never buy a house that isn't built just like I wouldn't "pre-order" a video game that isn't finished. It's so stupid to place such faith in corporations.
I think your only choice the is to buy used homes….like used cars. I don’t think you have an option to buy new without down payment. There’s plenty of people that will pay the down payment game.
I'm wondering if folks who went through the '08 financial crisis had a tougher time than I am having today, my plan was to work, save money and retire at 55, but high price for everything is now an obstacle *Sigh, I look towards the stock market to fuel my goal at this point.

I’m confused. Why are slight dips in the real estate market always labeled as a “crisis”, whereas rising prices for real estate is always viewed as an objectively good thing? If real estate prices just kept going up forever, then you would have fewer and fewer people that can afford a housing. In my mind, it’s inevitable that there was going to be a dip in real estate, especially considering that people where buying homes before they were even build. At some point, the bubble was going to pop.
Spot on. The issue with real estate is that recently(maybe the last two decades), it's been so commoditized that people don't take that into account or refuse to believe it's not a risk-free asset. No commodity is immune to risk, but housing gets pumped so bad and it's layers of price shock is so thick, it gets this treatment.
Chinese government worries real estate bubble might busted and cause serious financial crisis, same as Japan in the past 20 year. So they make the bubble busted on purpose by themselves. This was a right decision for the country’s long run development, despite real estate will suffer in short term.
@@andresgarciacastro1783 that is what Chinese government wants to see. Let young people afford buying houses, let more capital flow to the industry rather than concrete and bricks.

China 🇨🇳 keeps saying its economy is fine. But in reality, its property sector, which accounts for 30% of GDP, is crashing. Exports and imports are down. The youth unemployment rate hits almost 50%. Its workforce is very old. Still, China keeps reporting outrageous numbers. Lol
Tofu dreg apartments. This is what happens when the people are made to buy property before it’s even built. People would’ve kept buying if developers finished the properties they sold
I live in China, the husband of my wife's friend was the head of investment for our city. He warned me three years ago that property is no longer a good investment in China.
Real estate is at its peak as salary-making populations haven't experienced the same rise in salary as a rise in housing prices. Say I made 400k a year and could afford in the past 1 million dollars houses; the same house is 2 million dollars to purchase now; there is no way my salary will go up to 800k a year to match the rise in housing price. Even with inflation, at most, my salary will go up 5% per year, and not even close to being able to afford the current housing price. More realistically, with the same 400k salary, I am only able to afford what used to cost 600k to 700k houses that are about half the size I could afford 3 years ago. What people don't realize is that not only are houses more expensive, but everything else is more expensive too, with more property tax, more insurance costs, and higher costs for everything else. Not only do things cost more, but people are also used to spending more from revenge spending habits developed post-pandemic. As you can see, even for higher middle-class earners, the market is completely broken.
If China's real estate crisis triggers a market crash or a financial crisis, it could send shockwaves through the stock markets worldwide. I’m worried about my investment of over *$600K* stocks. Is this a time to consider diversifying my portfolios?
Yeah, I read that China's property market accounts for a significant portion of their GDP. If it takes a hit, it might lead to reduced consumer spending and overall economic instability. I advice you consult with a professional about your investment portfolio.
Agreed, instead of panic or following a hearsay, I simply adopted the service of an advisor early 2020 amid covid-outbreak, and so far, I've attained my most measurable financial milestone of *$650k* after subsequent investments of *$80K*
That's quite incredible! My p0rtfolio has been performing poorly and i've lost a significant amount of money, therefore I could really use their advice. Who is the advisor?
It’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
A lot of folks have been going on about the bull rally and said stocks that would be experiencing significant growth, any idea which stocks this may be? I just sold my home in the Boca Grande area and I’m looking to remunerate a lump sum into the stock market before stocks rebound, is this a good time to buy or no?
Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumours and here-says, got the best of me 2020 and had me holding worthless position in the market, I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of a planner, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio, been using the same advisor and I’ve scaled up 750k within 2 years, whether a bullish or down market, both makes for good profit, it all depends on where you’re looking.
True, we’re only just an information away from amassing wealth, I know a lot of folks that made fortunes from the Dotcom crash as well as the 08’ crash and I’ve been looking into similar opportunities in this present market, could this coach that guides yo help?

I visited Changsha with my wife and son in October 2023. We live in the US and were visiting her side of the family. We took the high speed train from Hong Kong to Changsha. During the 3 hour train ride and the one hour car ride that followed, I have never seen so many cranes in a skyline erecting buildings in my life. It was everywhere you looked. People were great and food was outstanding though 👍
Keep in mind that during the course of the 2008 US housing crash, there were high-level attempts to cover up warning signs of the impending issue and the government just ignored the problem and let the bubble grow until it inevitably exploded. But the current situation in China was an intentional "bubble burst" orchestrated by its government, as it knew the problem would only get worse if it was ignored. And that's a major difference between the US and China, the former just lets greed run the market, and the latter intervenes when it sees a problem.
Latter intervenes when they see a problem. Like delivering unfinished goods? Putting price control over price decreases? They're not bursting the bubble but they're blowing air on it to make it big. If the bubble popped in China, there will be a huge decrease in sales price to normalize the market.
@@sergeantjoe6802 Thefk? 😅 How is the bubble getting bigger? This video alone showed how the market and the sales volume have greatly contracted.

@@EastMilk when you provide a whataboutism about another country, I know you're a wumao. What are we talking about? Oh yeah, RE in China. Not knife murder spree or tofu-dreg building killers in China. Sales volume have greatly contracted but that's on top of the controls I've mentioned CCP government had put in. It's still an unnatural decline. It should be sharp due to how it is fed over the years.
Well what’s worse it that the CCP won’t let the price drop, so now they are selling the homes with gold included in the homes to offset the price. So now buyers are getting gold and selling it to pay the difference. That’s going to mess with gold values also.
I struggle to believe that china is building these houses to modern standards as the person said in the video. From my experience of hotels in china they're often build terribly and cut loada of corners. Even the 5 star hotels initially look good on the surface but doesnt take long to see loads of badly thought-out things and clear cost cutting to give an inferior product.
China property market is spiral out of proportion, Evergrande and Country Garden have been used by US investor like BlackRock to harm China economy by using ponzi scheme in property market building , no other contries that allow any developers building new projects before finishing previous project. So in China Evergrande and Country Garden build half done dozens of projects , this is crazy and very dengerous moves.
Chinese local governments rely too heavily on the revenue from the real estate sector including but not confined to the big money from selling the land, but now it has become harder and harder for them to sell land and therefore huge shrinkage of local fiscal incomes. It is indeed a grave crisis in the making.
The Bubble and Regulatory Constrains, it is INEVITABLE Growth and Fall.China s real estate crisis have remarcable IMPACT to Global Economy, BUT NOT KEY Absolutely...❤
All bubbles burst. I tried to say that to the Chinese I knew when I was living there. I got the reply that real estate always goes up. Nothing except taxes goes up forever🤣🤣🤣
China real estate problem is not just in China, it’s all over Asia. Chinese companies invested heavily in Southeast Asia and you can see ghost city and abandoned high rise projects from Cambodia, Vietnam, and Indonesia.
After comparing the prices in several videos, I noticed that China's property prices during its peak is 3 times the prices in Jakarta Indonesia (a similarly developing country), no wonder the bubble burst and the prices are decreasing by about 60% or more, almost back to Jakarta levels.😅
The real estate market in the past 20 years boomed, letting many people live in their new houses but also bringing big troubles and even potential crises to the current or short future because it has accumulated an unbelievable amount of debt.
1) Real wages in Taiwan have stagnated for over a decade, while the cost of living has continued to rise. This has led to a decline in living standards. 2) The gap between the rich and the poor in Taiwan is widening. The top 20% of earners take home more than half of the country's income, while the bottom 20% take home less than 5%. 3) Many Taiwanese companies have moved their production overseas in search of lower costs. This has led to a decline in manufacturing jobs and a loss of tax 4) Taiwan's exports have been weak in recent years, due to a number of factors including the global slowdown and rising competition from China. 4) Taiwan's population is aging and shrinking. This will lead to a smaller workforce and a decline in domestic demand. 5) Languishing exports: Taiwan's exports have been weak in recent years, due to a number of factors including the global slowdown and rising competition from China.

its both sad and fascinating that roughly every 10-12yrs something like this happens to the global economy. let's not forget what happened in 2008. let's just hope that things don't spiral even more out of control
Thank the guy who got a Nobel prize for saving the world in 2008. Fast forward to now and he destroyed the world with his QE and interest rate suppression.
That is totally different story in 2008. In 2008, basically the whole finical sector got involved in the scam and $uck money from other sectors. And eventually, some player in the sector think they got enough money and need to get rid of the it. Then the market collapse. But in China, the main issue are the developers. They have overly taken the risk and make themself unrecoverable. And the government just said you should not do that then the developers collapse.
This is way different than 2008. This real estate bubble is like 100x what it was in 2007 in US. Also 30% of China’s economy is real estate. Business and investment fleeing China. The ccp is making it worse making the bubble bigger. They will never fill even half of these homes they have built and the people paying the price are the regular Chinese people with no rights.
In the USA, with the FED at basically 0% interest rates, or even negative if you include inflation, money was basically free to the big banks for a long time. This encourages speculation. The FED is the cause of all this. 0% interest rates should only be used in a recession, there needs to be a cost to borrow, so wise investments are made.
The 2008 financial crisis never ended, we just kept piling up debt to delay the economic depression that is suppose to hit. The irony is China's economic woes are connected to them fueling the global economy through the 2008 crisis. They fueled global exports, when western countries were spending relatively small amounts on baleouts.
How do they talk about China's housing crisis and not even mention the 800 pound gorilla in the room, China's horrible demographics. Their birthrate is nearing one child per woman in her lifetime. Only South Korea has a lower birthrate than China's but Korea is much wealthier which gives it some leeway. Some demographic projections have China's population falling by roughly half by 2050 and their population has already started shrinking last year and probably much earlier. Add to this that China's marriage rate is falling off a cliff which going to depress home buying since many new home buyers are newly married couples which will reduce demand even further. And I'm not going to even get into all of the economic and geopolitical issues that China's faces which will weigh on demand.
"Some demographic projections have China's population falling by roughly half by 2050". Those projections are clearly mistaken. Even if Chinese women stop having babies completely, there won't be enough people dying over the next 27 years to make the population drop by half. At the very worst, the population might drop to 1 Billion, but that is provided no babies are born until then.
It seems like China’s astonishing economic growth over the past four decades have set the country up to crash on the demographic plateau and high property market expectations at the most unfortunate time. China now has a huge infrastructure burden, as impressive as it looks, but a slowing economic growth means the possibility of wide spread ghost cities is frighteningly close to taking place. China’s authoritarian goverment cannot accept large scale immigration but a political system that is more open, as seen in (shudder) that pesky runaway province Taiwan, could do so.
So who foreclothest on whom? It looks like - lenders, owners, and workers are getting killed, while these corporations escape with ill gotten gains into foreign countries without any extradiction. Classic crime. Let's forget unfinished and not started projects that have been sold. Let's look at the underlying 70 live cycle of Chinese real estate - I would not touch any property in China. Even if finished, in good quality, and occupied. My parents lived 51 years in their apartment, and no matter what - there is only 19 years left? This is not ownership, this is a boatanchor. Meaning in 19 years puff everything turns into pumpinks. This will lead to total chaos. Money gone, cars gone, infra structure gone - jobs gone, freedom you never had, your health is gone, your hopes and dreames destroyed, the lucky few who escaped are the only ones that have might have a glimmer of a future outside of total destitude
Because so many people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.
You're correct! With the help of an investment coach, I was able to diversify my 450K portfolio across markets and produce slightly more than $830K in net profit from high dividend yield equities, ETFs, and bonds.

No IF and ONLY IF we insulate ourselves from China's economy, i.e. do NOT invest in China, do NOT buy any stocks of Chinese companies (I am talking to you, pension funds!!), do NOT lend money to China or any Chinese companies, do NOT buy any bonds or commercial papers or any debt instruments from China or Chinese companies. Then we might be ok.
I visited China in summer this year. I didn't see one single homeless person. The quality of apartments though... even supposedly nice apartments seem to be incomplete projects. A lot of empty units and zoning are very disorganized
Actually, there are regularly people sleeping under bridges, etc., but it is debatable whether you can really call them 'homeless'. They will often be migrants trying their luck in the city, but not having enough money to rent a room. Sleeping under the stars is sometimes tolerated, other times people are chased away.
Really nothing new here just a rehash of stories reported over the past couple of years. One glaring omission: China has the world’s most expensive real estate especially in major cities. Price to income ratios of 40 to 1. Manhattan perhaps 10 to 1? Little now being said about individuals owning several apartments for investment. Many of these units were never rented out and the buildings are vacant and neglected. Ma and Pa Wang stuck with unmarketable investments just as they age in a society with no retirement or elder care health support programs. A very bleak future for the Chinese awash in levels of debt far higher than the US with enormous supplies of unneeded commercial and public buildings. Demolition might be a growth area and investment opportunity.

The fact that there is already an excessive amount of demand awaiting its absorption, despite how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, is another reason why it is less likely to occur that way. 2008 saw no one, at least not the broad public, making this forecast, as I'll explain below. The ownership rate was noted to have peaked in 2004 in the other comment. Having previously peaked in the second quarter of 2020, we are currently at the median level. Between 2008 and 2012, it dropped by 3%, and by the second quarter of 2020, it had dropped from 68 to 65.

The bigger problem is consumer spending. There are now tens of millions of middle class Chinese people who are paying a mortgage on an apartment that is not finished, and will probably never be finished, as well as paying rent at the same time. This drastically cuts into what they can spend on other stuff, which keeps the economy low. The chinese real estate market has been a sham for 20 years, and the government looked the other way because it made GDP growth look good. The same collapse is going to happen with their EV markets where they are also scamming the GDP numbers by recycling cars to inflate sales numbers. You buy an EV, get the government subsidy, then immediately strip the battery and other expensive parts and sell them back to the car manufacturer and end up with a profit. The car manufacturer then makes, what is considered a ' new car' with the previous cars battery and sells it as a new car. This works as long as the subsidy is big enough, and there are fields of tens of thousands of new EVs that have had their batteries removed.
Well they've recently removed EV subsidies
The massive money printing is hitting the reality of productivity and finite resources.
The amount of money the Fed has printed over the years is horrifying.
@jordie4423 If this was true they would have huge inflation, but they have deflation
What the hell is that halloween background music interfering with the voiceovers and the actual voice? 😅
I love how people talk about recovery when the crash hasn’t even really started yet.
Exactly. They're also deliberately removing the context of the overall state of the global economy, and how every country is struggling with immense inflationary pressures. They're acting that China's decline is somehow isolated to its own problems, and not additionally a systemic fault of everything else collapsing.

Please if you dont want to live in suburban homes than dont. And let those who do want to live there.
The situation in China is MUCH different than in the rest of the world. In China, people don't have access to a stock market or crypto trading. I don't even know if you can buy silver and gold in China. The only real way to invest money is in real estate. And it was the CCP and the real estate companies they control that built these cities that nobody lives in. It served two purposes. It gave people something to invest in, and it let the CCP claim their economy was growing really fast.
But now, anyone with enough money to invest in a property already has and the properties themselves are just rotting on the vine, because nobody has, or will, live in them.
Real estate is no longer a good investment. With collapsing populations, there’s nobody to create demand.
Boomer wealth was mainly created by populations’ expansions. Now that trend is reversed. And by 2080, those markets will collapse worldwide.
It was never a good "investment" but people can wrap their heads around RE moreso than bonds and equities.
Good thing all our homes are made from wood and only last 80 years with rigorous upkeep
They should never have been considered an investment.
collapsing population? Americans are literally letting in millions of illegal mexicans by the day, How is the population collapsing?
I wonder, though, because world population has been growing regardless. It’s only the first world where population is declining.
In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not strongly reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.
This is true. Particularly in the stock market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
Very true, I find myself lucky enough exposed to money management at an early age. Worked full time when I was 19, purchased first home at 28, fast forward time... I'm 50 now, got laid off March 2020 amidst lockdown, a blessing in disguise. At once, I consulted an advisor to stay afloat and with subsequent investments, I'm only 15% short of $1m as of today.
This is impressive. Would love to grow my reserve regardless of the economy situation, my 401k has lost everything accrued since early 2019, at this point, I'm in need of guidance, can you point me?

Going forward I don't see people being stupid enough to put down deposits on unbuilt property. So many people have been burned. And they're even expected to pay mortgages on these unbuilt properties. It's insanity.

It's a ponzi scheme. Worst, the regulators are part of it.
I think your only choice the is to buy used homes….like used cars. I don’t think you have an option to buy new without down payment. There’s plenty of people that will pay the down payment game.

They don't by the land it's a 70 year lease
I’m confused. Why are slight dips in the real estate market always labeled as a “crisis”, whereas rising prices for real estate is always viewed as an objectively good thing? If real estate prices just kept going up forever, then you would have fewer and fewer people that can afford a housing. In my mind, it’s inevitable that there was going to be a dip in real estate, especially considering that people where buying homes before they were even build. At some point, the bubble was going to pop.
It's the bias favoring incumbent homeowners over those who still need one.
Spot on. The issue with real estate is that recently(maybe the last two decades), it's been so commoditized that people don't take that into account or refuse to believe it's not a risk-free asset.
No commodity is immune to risk, but housing gets pumped so bad and it's layers of price shock is so thick, it gets this treatment.
Leverage…
It’s because we view real estate as an investment, rather than a product to be bought, sold, and consumed
Almost same one happened in Japan and is happening in S. Korea. East Asia has similar perspectives about Real Estate.

Welcome to modern finance
做为一个中国山东人，说一说这两天售楼小姐给我打电话的内容，我这属沿海小城市，房价略高，均价每平在1万人民币左右，跟年前比略降，价格很多持平，有的最多降10%。中国出现房地产崩溃是不可能，最大因素是中国城镇化率在65%，意味着还有两亿农民进城，这是最大动力。
Real estate is at its peak as salary-making populations haven't experienced the same rise in salary as a rise in housing prices. Say I made 400k a year and could afford in the past 1 million dollars houses; the same house is 2 million dollars to purchase now; there is no way my salary will go up to 800k a year to match the rise in housing price. Even with inflation, at most, my salary will go up 5% per year, and not even close to being able to afford the current housing price. More realistically, with the same 400k salary, I am only able to afford what used to cost 600k to 700k houses that are about half the size I could afford 3 years ago. What people don't realize is that not only are houses more expensive, but everything else is more expensive too, with more property tax, more insurance costs, and higher costs for everything else. Not only do things cost more, but people are also used to spending more from revenge spending habits developed post-pandemic. As you can see, even for higher middle-class earners, the market is completely broken.
The same old story in 2010 retold, waiting to see ghost cities occupied in 10 years' time.
Property values(housing costs) skyrocketed then there was a general consumer crash? 🤔
If China's real estate crisis triggers a market crash or a financial crisis, it could send shockwaves through the stock markets worldwide. I’m worried about my investment of over *$600K* stocks. Is this a time to consider diversifying my portfolios?
Yeah, I read that China's property market accounts for a significant portion of their GDP. If it takes a hit, it might lead to reduced consumer spending and overall economic instability. I advice you consult with a professional about your investment portfolio.
Agreed, instead of panic or following a hearsay, I simply adopted the service of an advisor early 2020 amid covid-outbreak, and so far, I've attained my most measurable financial milestone of *$650k* after subsequent investments of *$80K*
That's quite incredible! My p0rtfolio has been performing poorly and i've lost a significant amount of money, therefore I could really use their advice. Who is the advisor?
Credits to *Sharon Louise Count* one of the best portfolio manager;s out there. she;s well known, you should check her out
I Found her webpage by looking up her name online. She seems very proficient, I scheduled a call.
It’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
A lot of folks have been going on about the bull rally and said stocks that would be experiencing significant growth, any idea which stocks this may be? I just sold my home in the Boca Grande area and I’m looking to remunerate a lump sum into the stock market before stocks rebound, is this a good time to buy or no?
Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumours and here-says, got the best of me 2020 and had me holding worthless position in the market, I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of a planner, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio, been using the same advisor and I’ve scaled up 750k within 2 years, whether a bullish or down market, both makes for good profit, it all depends on where you’re looking.
True, we’re only just an information away from amassing wealth, I know a lot of folks that made fortunes from the Dotcom crash as well as the 08’ crash and I’ve been looking into similar opportunities in this present market, could this coach that guides yo help?

I visited Changsha with my wife and son in October 2023. We live in the US and were visiting her side of the family. We took the high speed train from Hong Kong to Changsha. During the 3 hour train ride and the one hour car ride that followed, I have never seen so many cranes in a skyline erecting buildings in my life. It was everywhere you looked.
People were great and food was outstanding though 👍
Keep in mind that during the course of the 2008 US housing crash, there were high-level attempts to cover up warning signs of the impending issue and the government just ignored the problem and let the bubble grow until it inevitably exploded.
But the current situation in China was an intentional "bubble burst" orchestrated by its government, as it knew the problem would only get worse if it was ignored.
And that's a major difference between the US and China, the former just lets greed run the market, and the latter intervenes when it sees a problem.
Latter intervenes when they see a problem. Like delivering unfinished goods? Putting price control over price decreases? They're not bursting the bubble but they're blowing air on it to make it big. If the bubble popped in China, there will be a huge decrease in sales price to normalize the market.
@@sergeantjoe6802 Thefk? 😅 How is the bubble getting bigger? This video alone showed how the market and the sales volume have greatly contracted.

Isn’t this old news!! Like a year or more
Well what’s worse it that the CCP won’t let the price drop, so now they are selling the homes with gold included in the homes to offset the price. So now buyers are getting gold and selling it to pay the difference. That’s going to mess with gold values also.
You better focus on the America’s problems than China’s. Rents in the states are completely unaffordable
I struggle to believe that china is building these houses to modern standards as the person said in the video.

Been collapsing in super slow motion. Evergrande I thought according to y'all was gonna take everything down last year...

So in China Evergrande and Country Garden build half done dozens of projects , this is crazy and very dengerous moves.
Chinese local governments rely too heavily on the revenue from the real estate sector including but not confined to the big money from selling the land, but now it has become harder and harder for them to sell land and therefore huge shrinkage of local fiscal incomes.

China is facing structural issues, which can only be fixed by regime change. Taiwan 🇹🇼 can help!

2) The gap between the rich and the poor in Taiwan is widening. The top 20% of earners take home more than half of the country's income, while the bottom 20% take home less than 5%.
3) Many Taiwanese companies have moved their production overseas in search of lower costs. This has led to a decline in manufacturing jobs and a loss of tax 4) Taiwan's exports have been weak in recent years, due to a number of factors including the global slowdown and rising competition from China.
4) Taiwan's population is aging and shrinking. This will lead to a smaller workforce and a decline in domestic demand.
5) Languishing exports: Taiwan's exports have been weak in recent years, due to a number of factors including the global slowdown and rising competition from China.

its both sad and fascinating that roughly every 10-12yrs something like this happens to the global economy. let's not forget what happened in 2008. let's just hope that things don't spiral even more out of control
Thank the guy who got a Nobel prize for saving the world in 2008. Fast forward to now and he destroyed the world with his QE and interest rate suppression.
That is totally different story in 2008. In 2008, basically the whole finical sector got involved in the scam and $uck money from other sectors. And eventually, some player in the sector think they got enough money and need to get rid of the it. Then the market collapse.
But in China, the main issue are the developers. They have overly taken the risk and make themself unrecoverable. And the government just said you should not do that then the developers collapse.
This is way different than 2008. This real estate bubble is like 100x what it was in 2007 in US. Also 30% of China’s economy is real estate. Business and investment fleeing China. The ccp is making it worse making the bubble bigger. They will never fill even half of these homes they have built and the people paying the price are the regular Chinese people with no rights.
In the USA, with the FED at basically 0% interest rates, or even negative if you include inflation, money was basically free to the big banks for a long time. This encourages speculation. The FED is the cause of all this. 0% interest rates should only be used in a recession, there needs to be a cost to borrow, so wise investments are made.
The 2008 financial crisis never ended, we just kept piling up debt to delay the economic depression that is suppose to hit. The irony is China's economic woes are connected to them fueling the global economy through the 2008 crisis. They fueled global exports, when western countries were spending relatively small amounts on baleouts.
"Maybe that is a question you should ask Chy-na!" DJT
the reason of collapse they claim 2nd biggest economy in the world but the salary is just the same as the 3rd world country.
How do they talk about China's housing crisis and not even mention the 800 pound gorilla in the room, China's horrible demographics. Their birthrate is nearing one child per woman in her lifetime. Only South Korea has a lower birthrate than China's but Korea is much wealthier which gives it some leeway. Some demographic projections have China's population falling by roughly half by 2050 and their population has already started shrinking last year and probably much earlier. Add to this that China's marriage rate is falling off a cliff which going to depress home buying since many new home buyers are newly married couples which will reduce demand even further. And I'm not going to even get into all of the economic and geopolitical issues that China's faces which will weigh on demand.
"Some demographic projections have China's population falling by roughly half by 2050". Those projections are clearly mistaken. Even if Chinese women stop having babies completely, there won't be enough people dying over the next 27 years to make the population drop by half. At the very worst, the population might drop to 1 Billion, but that is provided no babies are born until then.
smaller population gives more incentives to restructure their economy to higher value sectors. It's flexible enough
Am i crazy or is there a mandolin playing “oriental” style music in the background? Why do US shows do this? I can’t continue to listen to it
First guy is wrong. They don’t out a down payment on an unbuilt house. They buy the whole thing.
It seems like China’s astonishing economic growth over the past four decades have set the country up to crash on the demographic plateau and high property market expectations at the most unfortunate time. China now has a huge infrastructure burden, as impressive as it looks, but a slowing economic growth means the possibility of wide spread ghost cities is frighteningly close to taking place. China’s authoritarian goverment cannot accept large scale immigration but a political system that is more open, as seen in (shudder) that pesky runaway province Taiwan, could do so.
Almost same one happened in Japan 3 decades ago and is happening in S. Korea nowadays. East Asians have similar perspectives about Real Estate.
But houses are still expensive in the big cities in Japan. The only risk is buying offplan. Just buy a finished unit with common sense.
So who foreclothest on whom? It looks like - lenders, owners, and workers are getting killed, while these corporations escape with ill gotten gains into foreign countries without any extradiction. Classic crime. Let's forget unfinished and not started projects that have been sold. Let's look at the underlying 70 live cycle of Chinese real estate - I would not touch any property in China. Even if finished, in good quality, and occupied. My parents lived 51 years in their apartment, and no matter what - there is only 19 years left? This is not ownership, this is a boatanchor. Meaning in 19 years puff everything turns into pumpinks.
This will lead to total chaos. Money gone, cars gone, infra structure gone - jobs gone, freedom you never had, your health is gone, your hopes and dreames destroyed, the lucky few who escaped are the only ones that have might have a glimmer of a future outside of total destitude
What's with the video quality?
Because so many people overpaid for homes even while loan rates were low, I believe there will be a housing catastrophe because these people are in debt. If housing costs continue to drop and, for whatever reason, they can no longer afford the property and it goes into foreclosure, they have no equity since, even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I believe that many individuals will experience this, especially given the impending mass layoffs and rapidly rising living expenses.

The whole world just got so greedy in the last couple of years. I wonder why? 🤔🙄. And it seems as though it’s all coming home to roost.
Crisis? Nothing more than regular market adjustments

WAS VERY LOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
America needs those ghost cities for its homeless
I'm sure there will be some tangential effect. The tofu-dreg situation is going to definitely make it worse the the citizens.
That's so clever, not to repay offshore debt. It's very much free money, and stops investments companies meddling in your internal politics.
Good move China 👍 👏👏👏👏
CNBC's presenter accent, oof it's painful to listen to.
No IF and ONLY IF we insulate ourselves from China's economy, i.e. do NOT invest in China, do NOT buy any stocks of Chinese companies (I am talking to you, pension funds!!), do NOT lend money to China or any Chinese companies, do NOT buy any bonds or commercial papers or any debt instruments from China or Chinese companies. Then we might be ok.
I visited China in summer this year. I didn't see one single homeless person. The quality of apartments though... even supposedly nice apartments seem to be incomplete projects. A lot of empty units and zoning are very disorganized
Yeah right
It's illegal to be homeless in China. The Party declared it so, and it was done.
@@Motiv38that's not how housing works
Actually, there are regularly people sleeping under bridges, etc., but it is debatable whether you can really call them 'homeless'. They will often be migrants trying their luck in the city, but not having enough money to rent a room. Sleeping under the stars is sometimes tolerated, other times people are chased away.
@@Motiv38That sounds like an effective policy. The US should try that.
I think it already impacting the world economy 😂
Really nothing new here just a rehash of stories reported over the past couple of years. One glaring omission: China has the world’s most expensive real estate especially in major cities. Price to income ratios of 40 to 1. Manhattan perhaps 10 to 1? Little now being said about individuals owning several apartments for investment. Many of these units were never rented out and the buildings are vacant and neglected. Ma and Pa Wang stuck with unmarketable investments just as they age in a society with no retirement or elder care health support programs. A very bleak future for the Chinese awash in levels of debt far higher than the US with enormous supplies of unneeded commercial and public buildings. Demolition might be a growth area and investment opportunity.
This is one year old news, China foreign reserve grew 2.1 percent third quarter of 2023. No collaps in sight.
With the number 2 global economy
Brace yourselves people.
Invest in Singapore, the government will never allow the market to tank. 90% of citizens are home owners 😊
Maybe Australia could get the Chinese to build us some houses!
