The developers in China have different decision making model. In China, it's IF we build it, people will come. The urbanization rate is 60% today. 20 years ago was less than 30%. All of the "ghost cities" you saw 10 yrs ago are now some of the most desirable new districts today. Every 10% of the Chinese population is 150 million people or like 50 million household demand. It profitable when the economy is still growing.
Building multiple, low-quality properties sold to rich investors as an asset only to be sold later for profit and your average commoner can’t afford to buy them. What can possibly go wrong?
China is fully aware of the Evergrande's financial mess for a long time. They had ignored the corruption of the Chinese property developers for the sake of economic growth. To the 1.5 million Chinese who bought unfinished properties, it's highly unlikely China central government will bail you out. So the road ahead for these people is to continue paying mortgage or declare bankrupt.
Continue paying for something that isn't complete, you just give a down payment when you purchase a condo, You don't have a mortgage yet, you don't own. So at most you lose the deposit. But why build so many building and none are complete?
@@gordonlam2757 It's true at most you lose the deposit. There are many Chinese home and business owners mortgaging their houses and business property for a bank loan to purchase these unfinished property.
Meh at people losing deposits, what happens to debt on all the property sitting empty waiting for future higher prices that are never going to happen? Well, never mind the properties, who is going to pay the debt on them? Interesting times ahead for China as if they weren't interesting enough already.
Except personal bankruptcies essentially doesn’t exist in China in reality, so these homeowners really are stuck in this festering pool of involuntary financial mess indefinitely
Virtually every business failure story is about trying to expand too quickly, and taking on too much debt. As much as people extol the idiom "If you're not growing, you're dying" you never hear about a business failing because it stayed small, stayed profitable, and never took on any debt.
If you want to win in the business world you either grow as fast as possible or your competitors out produce you out research you and ultimately put compete you.
Another example of a business building its foundation on an infinite money fountain. The problem with that, is that there is no such thing as infinite money. As a business you should always be prepared for what happens when a revenue source dries up.
There is absolutely such thing as infinite money. What is money? It's a concept. An idea. Are ideas limited? No. But is the demand for money unlimited? No, it is not. If you print an infinite supply, people will lose interest and thus it will lose value. Money is basically just the arbitrary value we've assigned to the things we actually value. Like toilet paper. The toilet paper is worth more than the money. The only thing currency does well is endure. But it doesn't endure forever. No currency endures forever. Diversify your investments. And don't put all of your faith into a single story. Lookin at you, China.

@吃货小美女 The Great Depression people in the united states were borrowing more money than they could actually pay back to buy stock on the idea it would go up forever. This isn't unlike Evergrande constantly borrowing more money on land they've bought with the idea from lenders that it will keep going up.
The problem is even debt can be sold they just put a date of 10 or 20 years on it and say put interest on the debt so if the debt is 10 million they will add on 10% extra so now the debt to be paid is 11 million for example and someone will buy it looking to make profit of 1 million lol its crazy
@@aleksandersuur9475 i know it was an example and if it comes to it the ccp will buy the bonds via a state owned company just to buy its self time to pay back all the debt rinse and repeat like paying your self its a way of just delaying inevitably they get to change payment date with every new change of hands
That company was the first of many who have gotten into financial trouble there and I feel bad for the people who purchased property unseen and that is terrible and a disaster in the making.
Feel bad for those who purchased property, yes, but they are just the first to feel the pain.

When I was on the bullet train from Shanghai, I noticed how fast they were building every where. Even my mom's home city looks completely different, massive round abouts and roads I never thought would ever be built.
@@BGRUBBIN What led to municipalities collapsing during 2008 in the US is that government infrastructure debt is backed by credit default swaps with financial firms. As such, when Evergrande went down, the fear is that it will drag investment banks and funds down as well. Hope China regulates the trading and formation of derivatives on government debt and bonds.
Those Ghost cities are apparently already paid for my the people who bought properties as an investment so it could be their second or third home. The only problem is people who actually want to buy a house to live in can't afford one. Similar situation in so many parts of the world right now
Not really, people in China paid for "real estate" that was not yet built, whereas in most other logical countries we do not buy anything that is not complete.
I don't think so. These ghost cities are actually what have caused the crisis. If they have all been filled with thriving community, none of this would have ever happened. And also the government would have bailed them out if they ran into financial trouble. Apparently these ghost cities were built for all the wrong causes. First it was government themselves who supported their project and flooded them with loans. Of course then government was rich and loaded, never thought of it through enough. Then it was the individual real estate investors who began putting down payment before even the construction began , thinking they might sell it to the real settlers at higher profit. And surprisingly no one showed up. Why would they?? Turns out you can't just build a city and expect people to live. Besides when building new housing infrastructure, the focus should be on the people who would live there and call in their homes and not the people who would seeks as an investment. Companies should have focused on building someone's home and not their real estate portfolio.
This is what annoys me. I remember those protests. Our media made it seem like it was people rising up against the gov. When in reality they were protesting a company.
Evergrande has had its hands in tech startups that ended with the startup going into insolvency and the persons in charge of the startup complicit in securities fraud, it's a pattern you can't ignore once you start pulling the thread. These 'cities' if they are in china, they are empty cities. Numerous partially built or fully built cities exist in China that are either mostly empty or entirely empty save for chinese security personnel who chase people out of them.

The chinese economy grew on credit and now all that debt is starting to have an impact in many sectors. Lack of oversight, rampant bribery and corruption and other shady business practices have taken its toll. Local governments are heavily indebted as well that they have cut the salaries of civil servants. Everyone just got greedy and wanted a piece of the pie. On top of this their zero covid policy is hurting the economy as well by suddenly disrupting economic activity wherever an outbreak occurs.
Which major economies didn't expand on credit ? This is not peculiar to China. Here in Malaysia, corruption is way more entrenched in public and private sectors. Are you surprised that organized crime bosses had become billionaires here and rub shoulder with highest level of government instead of rubbing shoulders with prison inmates? Most of the procurements/borrowings in large companies here were facilitated thru kickbacks. And I am pretty sure all these are happening in the whole of Southeast Asia and throughout the world. To deny is because of ignorance.
@@maxdc988 Yes most economies expand on credit, but most of them did eventually grow to dominate a market (e.g. japan with medical equipment and US with semiconductors). I can't think of a healthy, innovative company in china that isn't software related.
@@maxdc988 you don’t see major foreign companies accumulate this much debt like Evergrande has. And expand into creating businesses that has nothing to with its property business. Property development in china accounts for 30% of its GDP, what other major economy has a sector dominate this much? Local governments in china have accumulated $4 trillion in debt in just the last few years and their main revenue source is from property sales, they are not even allowed to levy taxes. How is that sustainable?
@@alainw77 So how great is the difference from province to province that this has kept going without the government intervening that the country got overbuild on real estate.
Frankly, I couldn't care less about financial investors' woes. In the end, their speculations are what drive the economy to bad places. But I worry about the common people who suffer as a consequence of those speculations. Investors don't want the governments to interfere but it is the lack of control the real problem because the market is unable to regulate itself.
Although China has questionable practises, i do appreciate that they are not bailing out Evergrande. Reminds me of a similar thing in the 2008 western world...

There's a mistake property developers always seem to make even where I'm from , There's always an assumption that land /property will always appreciate, which More often than not is true but they over estimate the appreciation rates time and time again .
@@SRR-rh7id real estate can go up by like 200% over ten years which is not normal but for growing cities it is and if it goes up by 2000% there's a societal issue as people's income rarely rises at the same rate...while something similar can happen in stocks and its no problem if the business is really growing and your not in a bubble... both have their risks but quick money is stocks and slow money
Brian Mwaura: That's a big part of what happened to banks in the great recession. Though the vast majority of real estate in real (inflation adjusted) terms will LIKELY end up appreciating over time, there can definitely be steep downsides in the short run, in economic hard times. People running real estate empires SHOULD know this -- there's lots of data showing it out there.
I think the question is if we see a massive crash in real estate or a long and protracted stagnation of the economy. My guess is we see a significant slowing similar to Japanese crisis. Hopefully not a crash and fortunately that looks unlikely.
I really like how the government didn't want to bail them out. All companies need to be held responsible for their own bad decisions and not the taxpayer.
@@Tounguepunchfartbox exactly, that’s because all these corporations the state has a hand in it. China the country is basically a company, like a Super Amazon with nuclear weapons.
You're kind of clueless. The government got them there, nothing they did was possible without the budget assignment system of mainland China, the companies got money for their activities directly from state-controlled banks, the stuff they made got sold to big companies than then sell to end-users. This is a full circle back to government and it will get bailed, just not directly.

Your problem could be your stop loss is too close or you're watching your trades too much. Place it and walk away. Or you could just give up, trading isn't for everyone.
Don't listen to him, don't give up. Trading takes time(months, even years) to master, even the pros learn everyday. Never the less, if you lose money no matter which side you take, maybe you need to look at how you are managing active trades rather than how you are entering them. My advice, find a mentor . And also, try incorporating the use of oscillators, Bollinger and pivot points into your strategy. And most importantly move to higher TFs(4h or 1D preferably), you'll thank me later
You're correct, I don't lose money every single trade, but my main problem is trying to let my runners run. Very rarely do I catch big moves . Instead they go a few pips in my direction, then go against me if when I try holding them. Also my entries could use a lot of improvement. A mentor would be amazing, but getting one is easier said than done. If it's not too much to ask, do you know any legit ones?
To be honest, I’ve loss greatly on trading too but I found out that the only solution at my situation personally was to get a professional trader who managed and controlled my trades. You can get one too. For months now I’ve been trading with Vivian Klaine Morgan and I can say I’ve made more than my loss now.

that's what happens when we overproduce. we've had crisis' of overproduction for a while now. due to the repeated extraction of the surplus by the rich, the worker's have no money to buy the commodities necessary to reproduce the system. if you build 50 houses, but only 10 people have wages high enough to buy 20 houses, that still leads to 30 empty houses. however, the rich really don't want a repeat of when they increased wages in the past, because increasing the right's of the workers leads to more workers asking for more rights. the same could be seen when amazon during the pandemic destroyed so much of it's product, not because they couldn't find buyers for it if they increased wages, but because they would rather destroy product then increase the amount of people who could buy these products by increasing the buying power of the populace. the buying power of the populace has steadily been going down in tons of places other than china, and now that lowering of purchasing power seems to be coming to china now.
Where did the money go though? They borrowed money to build houses. Can't they just sell those houses? Or is it because they don't have inventory left? $300B worth of houses are unfinished?

Tips for business owners: crisis often comes from overconfidence rather than conservatism.
Both have their own issues. Even though a conservative company may appear functioning, it fails to take advantage of opportunities. You need balance.
Chinese used to be the most conservative businessmen along with Japanese. At least that was their reputation.
At some point this mirage bubble must reach bursting point for reality to strike home.
The problem is even debt can be sold they just put a date of 10 or 20 years on it and say put interest on the debt so if the debt is 10 million they will add on 10% extra so now the debt to be paid is 11 million for example and someone will buy it looking to make profit of 1 million lol its crazy

Those Ghost cities are apparently already paid for my the people who bought properties as an investment so it could be their second or third home. The only problem is people who actually want to buy a house to live in can't afford one. Similar situation in so many parts of the world right now
Not really, people in China paid for "real estate" that was not yet built, whereas in most other logical countries we do not buy anything that is not complete.
I don't think so. These ghost cities are actually what have caused the crisis. If they have all been filled with thriving community, none of this would have ever happened. And also the government would have bailed them out if they ran into financial trouble.
Apparently these ghost cities were built for all the wrong causes. First it was government themselves who supported their project and flooded them with loans. Of course then government was rich and loaded, never thought of it through enough. Then it was the individual real estate investors who began putting down payment before even the construction began , thinking they might sell it to the real settlers at higher profit. And surprisingly no one showed up. Why would they??
Turns out you can't just build a city and expect people to live. Besides when building new housing infrastructure, the focus should be on the people who would live there and call in their homes and not the people who would seeks as an investment. Companies should have focused on building someone's home and not their real estate portfolio.
Bloomberg, the company that tell you the business news after it happened.
This is what annoys me. I remember those protests. Our media made it seem like it was people rising up against the gov. When in reality they were protesting a company.
Who’s our media?
Evergrande has had its hands in tech startups that ended with the startup going into insolvency and the persons in charge of the startup complicit in securities fraud, it's a pattern you can't ignore once you start pulling the thread. These 'cities' if they are in china, they are empty cities. Numerous partially built or fully built cities exist in China that are either mostly empty or entirely empty save for chinese security personnel who chase people out of them.

The heart of the issue is it is too difficult for some people to obtain and keep adequate housing.
The chinese economy grew on credit and now all that debt is starting to have an impact in many sectors. Lack of oversight, rampant bribery and corruption and other shady business practices have taken its toll. Local governments are heavily indebted as well that they have cut the salaries of civil servants. Everyone just got greedy and wanted a piece of the pie. On top of this their zero covid policy is hurting the economy as well by suddenly disrupting economic activity wherever an outbreak occurs.
Which major economies didn't expand on credit ? This is not peculiar to China. Here in Malaysia, corruption is way more entrenched in public and private sectors. Are you surprised that organized crime bosses had become billionaires here and rub shoulder with highest level of government instead of rubbing shoulders with prison inmates? Most of the procurements/borrowings in large companies here were facilitated thru kickbacks. And I am pretty sure all these are happening in the whole of Southeast Asia and throughout the world. To deny is because of ignorance.
@@maxdc988 Yes most economies expand on credit, but most of them did eventually grow to dominate a market (e.g. japan with medical equipment and US with semiconductors). I can't think of a healthy, innovative company in china that isn't software related.
@@maxdc988 you don’t see major foreign companies accumulate this much debt like Evergrande has. And expand into creating businesses that has nothing to with its property business. Property development in china accounts for 30% of its GDP, what other major economy has a sector dominate this much? Local governments in china have accumulated $4 trillion in debt in just the last few years and their main revenue source is from property sales, they are not even allowed to levy taxes. How is that sustainable?
@@alainw77 So how great is the difference from province to province that this has kept going without the government intervening that the country got overbuild on real estate.
That is why the CCP went after all the rich because they are debt-ridden.
Frankly, I couldn't care less about financial investors' woes. In the end, their speculations are what drive the economy to bad places.
But I worry about the common people who suffer as a consequence of those speculations.
Investors don't want the governments to interfere but it is the lack of control the real problem because the market is unable to regulate itself.
Although China has questionable practises, i do appreciate that they are not bailing out Evergrande. Reminds me of a similar thing in the 2008 western world...
they are makings things even worse by not bailing them out
@@kartikbisht3453 how could you elaborate? Because this bubble has to be burst at some point right? And this is the only way for real estate prices to go back to normal
@@kartikbisht3453 for sure, but the market can't have this safety net of control that is the government. THe 2008 crisis was a giant wealth transfer of tax-payer dollars. It shouldn't be the governments responsibility to bail out greedy CEOs.
@@trolllovindaddy the construction sector is one of the core sectors that drives the economy, for example ssectors like cement steel and nbfc's are completely dependent on the real estate/construction sector and all these setors run on credit lines.

There's a mistake property developers always seem to make even where I'm from , There's always an assumption that land /property will always appreciate, which
More often than not is true but they over estimate the appreciation rates time and time again .
I've always heard that real estate is the best investment, because it always appreciates.
@@SRR-rh7id it does. Most rich folks made money in real estate because it always go up. In the long term.
@@TheBooban is real estate a superior investment as compared to dividend stocks?
@@SRR-rh7id real estate can go up by like 200% over ten years which is not normal but for growing cities it is and if it goes up by 2000% there's a societal issue as people's income rarely rises at the same rate...while something similar can happen in stocks and its no problem if the business is really growing and your not in a bubble... both have their risks but quick money is stocks and slow money
Brian Mwaura: That's a big part of what happened to banks in the great recession. Though the vast majority of real estate in real (inflation adjusted) terms will LIKELY end up appreciating over time, there can definitely be steep downsides in the short run, in economic hard times. People running real estate empires SHOULD know this -- there's lots of data showing it out there.

@@Tounguepunchfartbox exactly, that’s because all these corporations the state has a hand in it. China the country is basically a company, like a Super Amazon with nuclear weapons.
You're kind of clueless.

This is a full circle back to government and it will get bailed, just not directly.

HSR are state run company and owe debt to State bank. It is CCP borrowing from itself or printed money. They can forgive their own debt to themselves easily.
Build building that no one wants to live in? Well that's a recipe for disaster.
In this era where we wake up to changes,it is very much advisable to have a means of multiplying your money so that you won’t wake up stranded and confused.
the video about Evergrande's 100 billion in 17 mega Disneyesque amusement parks that are now half built and never will open, was a mind blower. In 100 years they will make for some interesting ruins.
No one is talking about the government’s strict policies that are affecting evergrands market and leading to its failure rn. Closed boarders , restricted investment from foreigners and foreign businesses in China. All this is part of why evergrand is defaulting rn and no one’s talking about it 🤦♂️
That's because those aren't the main issues. It's the 3 red lines to curb the debt crisis, CCP over-exuberance at their successes of handling covid 19, and need for capital to flow into more innovative and national security initiatives that have caused this.

I have been trading for about 6 months now and just about every trade backfires and slaps me in my face. Nearly impossible for me to catch more than a few points . I try to do top down analysis but it doesn't work for me . I say to myself, clearly I'm in the 90% that lose money, so I open a demo account, do my analysis, then take the opposite of what I would normally take and get the same result. I'm starting to feel hopeless, any advice for a struggling trader?
Your problem could be your stop loss is too close or you're watching your trades too much. Place it and walk away. Or you could just give up, trading isn't for everyone.
Don't listen to him, don't give up. Trading takes time(months, even years) to master, even the pros learn everyday. Never the less, if you lose money no matter which side you take, maybe you need to look at how you are managing active trades rather than how you are entering them. My advice, find a mentor . And also, try incorporating the use of oscillators, Bollinger and pivot points into your strategy. And most importantly move to higher TFs(4h or 1D preferably), you'll thank me later
You're correct, I don't lose money every single trade, but my main problem is trying to let my runners run. Very rarely do I catch big moves . Instead they go a few pips in my direction, then go against me if when I try holding them. Also my entries could use a lot of improvement. A mentor would be amazing, but getting one is easier said than done. If it's not too much to ask, do you know any legit ones?
To be honest, I’ve loss greatly on trading too but I found out that the only solution at my situation personally was to get a professional trader who managed and controlled my trades. You can get one too. For months now I’ve been trading with Vivian Klaine Morgan and I can say I’ve made more than my loss now.
I think I have seen this name on a trading forum before, And how may I contact her if that isn't too much to ask
If this were in America the government would immediately bail them out with the taxpayers dollar and allow them to keep ducking up, props to Xi for keeping them accountable

The construction on Heinan that was deemed illegal by authorities most likely serves as a warning to the investors behind the project, likely offshore investors, that they should be careful and not demand too much or their assets would be deemed illegal.

What a waste of human labour and resources to just wreck those almost-finished buildings.
that's what happens when we overproduce. we've had crisis' of overproduction for a while now. due to the repeated extraction of the surplus by the rich, the worker's have no money to buy the commodities necessary to reproduce the system. if you build 50 houses, but only 10 people have wages high enough to buy 20 houses, that still leads to 30 empty houses. however, the rich really don't want a repeat of when they increased wages in the past, because increasing the right's of the workers leads to more workers asking for more rights. the same could be seen when amazon during the pandemic destroyed so much of it's product, not because they couldn't find buyers for it if they increased wages, but because they would rather destroy product then increase the amount of people who could buy these products by increasing the buying power of the populace. the buying power of the populace has steadily been going down in tons of places other than china, and now that lowering of purchasing power seems to be coming to china now.
