Inflation-adjusted home prices in China have fallen below where they started two decades ago, and the fiscal fallout is hitting local governments even harder than developers.
Unfortunately, in China housing is the only thing they’re legally allowed lowed to “invest” in. There is no stock market, you can’t own land, you can’t buy land in foreign countries (legally). So when their market crashes 20% that’s the equivalent of the NSDAQ, housing, and subsidies markets all crashing 20% in a day, which is like beginning great depression type stuff.
