Housing should not receive so much financial leverage. THAT is the problem. If builders had to put up cash and get normal loans for their projects, no out of control projects would happen, or very few. Real estate developers get INSANE leverage for their projects, then just declare bankruptcy and start a new company debt free. This is how it works.

Most of these buildings are sub-standard. Two of the reasons the empty ghost towns of China were built was to keep people employed and to generate properties to sell.

Many of these buildings are in ghost cities. No one lives there and there are neither services nor jobs. The builders often counted on the fact that no one was actually going to take physical possession, to not finish them: for example, no lifts or even stairs; used materials so shoddy you can break off bits with your hand.

One issue that nobody ever talks about is the Chinese cultural practice of either needing a perfectly new home or to make serious renovations when you move in. Nobody wants to be the first to move into a neighborhood because they’ll get no sleep for a year as the other flats fill out. Happened to me twice while I lived in Chengdu. Construction noise day and night. Chinese know that if they live in the investment apartment they bought, it’ll be seriously devalued compared to all the other pristine units.

In fact the loss of asset value would then cause a further reduction by the non-performing loans at the respective banks - a double blow to the GDP. Sure sounds like a house of cards...l 😮

And how big is the Chinese population? Earlier construction even if the finished properties are un-inhabited offers future value. They were constructed when cost of labour and material were much lower.. Try to build the same today and the cost could have easily tripled. Do they really need to tear down buildings that could easily last a hundred years?

Many are unfinished and were never water tight. Continuing exposure to rain, wind and sun causes deterioration and weaknesses that can not be repaired. Additionally, to save money many of these buildings were built with unsafe concrete mixes. It is easy to gouge out concrete with just your fingernails. Entire stairways collapse because the concrete can not support them. It is a Ponzi scheme. They need to stop any new building and reset with a new financial system of purchase and ownership as well as strict enforcement of safety codes.

For most Chinese, real estate was the best investment. In China usually when something is trending or works they will go really, really hard. Real estate was one of those, there were so many buyers that those projects sold out before they started building. The demand was so high that those developers got greedy and rushed to make new projects, and many other developers followed the same trend to keep up with the competitor. The seeds were planted, and this loop of competition and greed all those developers were in caused the bubble to explode. In the end, they all bit off too much than they could chew.

Isaiah 14 3. The Lord will give the people of Israel (a.k.a black people) relief from their pain and suffering, and from the hard work they were forced to do. 4. When he does this, they are to mock the king of Babylonia and say:“The cruel king has fallen! He will never oppress anyone again! 6. who angrily oppressed the peoples and never stopped persecuting the nations they had conquered. 9. “The world of the dead is getting ready to welcome the king of Babylonia. The ghosts of those who were powerful on earth are stirring about. The ghosts of kings are rising from their thrones. 22. The Lord Almighty says, “I will attack Babylon and bring it to ruin. I will leave nothing - no children, no survivors at all. I, the Lord, have spoken. 23. I will turn Babylon into a marsh, and owls will live there. I will sweep Babylon with a broom that will sweep everything away. I, the Lord Almighty, have spoken.” 24. The Lord Almighty has sworn an oath: “What I have planned will happen. What I have determined to do will be done. Jeremiah 50 40. The same thing will happen to Babylon as happened to Sodom and Gomorrah, when I destroyed them and the nearby towns. No one will ever live there again. I, the Lord, have spoken. 42. They have taken their bows and swords; they are cruel and merciless. They sound like the roaring sea, as they ride their horses. They are ready for battle against Babylonia. 43. The king of Babylonia hears the news, and his hands hang limp. He is seized by anguish, by pain like a woman in labour. 45. So listen to the plan that I have made against the city of Babylon and to what I intend to do to its people. Even their children will be dragged off, and everyone will be horrified. 46. When Babylon falls, there will be such a noise that the entire earth will shake, and the cries of alarm will be heard by the other nations.”

Mutual funds takes long time, but investing smartly is the key for short term. Most of us tends to pay more attention to the shiniest position in the market to the cost of proper diversification.

I'm not sure Gravitas concentrates just on China. I watch a lot of Gravitas broadcasts, and they cover unreported stories from all over the world. I think in truth, that is what makes Gravitas a good channel : they cover topics that are rarely covered by other media sources, and they do so with context. They look at a topic and report upon it in its own context. A very educational approach, IMO. And they are not biased : they give the facts and let the viewer draw conclusions, rather than providing some kind of 'narrative', or slanted perspective. No media source is infallible, but personally I do like the very clear and polished presentation style of both the young women who present the Gravitas reports. Nothing speaks more clearly of a decent education, than young women like the two Gravitas presenters, both of whose style is elegant, calm and lucid.
