Because the early 2000s some China watchers have been predicting that the constructing growth would result in a crash. Twenty years on they might have been confirmed proper. International China editor James Kynge and Beijing correspondent Solar Yu talk about what is occurring in it is actual property sector, what that would do to China’s economic system and means for the world.

The real break occurs in your expectation.
As always,the same falungong clowns emerge at the sight of “China”.
China is not BROKEN, The USA IS..
just another daily China eco break bla bla bla
ADVchina took us years ago about the issues but NOOOOOOOO. They showed us the ghost cities and how their market is made up
Isn't every other developed country looking to regenerate their economy through the green evolution as well. Sure there are interesting times ahead!
.
Government involvement in the economy is bad
Bolsonaro The Best president against Narco-bolivarian comunism.
China is a strange country! We must defend Taiwan!
A greening of the economic model won't help much. So much of China's capital comes from property driven equity that in order to replace it with green tech they'd have to somehow compete with the rest of the world. Which, is already showing little interest in ceding control of that sector to any one source. Factor in the country's coming demographic collapse and you're left with Japan Bubble x 100.
Since xi jinping wants to be like mao they end it up running out of money
Where did china get money where did they get Innovation
LOL…I love the British and American media's obsession with China.
But still their economy is growing and strengthening.
World will never know when the event has happened. We should watch crash of industrial commodities to be certain that chinese bubble is deflated. We can see some symptoms. Iron ore must trade below $20/ton, Aluminum less than $500/ton and Copper less than $1000/ton. China reducing interest rates. Other minor things like extending loan tenure of mortgage loan. Final nail in the coffin moment will be china floating currency freely
I am against Communism and Authoritarian govt like CCP but have to give credit China for taking the bad of communism and put capitalism into its dna. It's commendable how they let the market correct instead of inflating like USA
…lol…what as FT (the big fans of CCP) as to say now!…will continue to say that CCP is marvelous in exchange of some nice payments!…
China new policy > company almost bankrupt > govt does not help
I think the policy work as long as the govt does not help since the main obj of the policy is to reduce debt in developers
Central banks are the problem, distorting asset prices, causing inflation and keeping the poor poor and the rich rich. Decentralised fiat would enable an economy to have natural mechanisms associated with a floating exchange rate. When the economy is weak, the currency would be weak and enable exports to be more attractive on the international market and imports more expensive in the domestic market. The reverse is true, which would protect against inflation when an economy overheats. Each economy ought to have its own decentralised fiat but they won’t give up control, they’re addicted to control.
China's GDP has been man made for decades and american corporations actually want a piece of that circus.
I'm not smart on anything like this, but I'm pretty sure china is very stronk (give me social credit please master xi)
China housing Problem it’s nothing compering to the us or Europe , china doesn’t need a new growth engine ,they already are on the top ,china leads the worlds economy
Comparing a country with 1,3 billions people to countries with 80 to 300 million ,and calling that a problem and the model is broken , it’s not logic
It's adjusting not broken economy or property makes china smarter and great again.👏
A model based on the abussive brutal dictatorship without rule of law…… just remember that the Chinese growth was generated by a combination of huge debt and capitalism freedom…. they will move from real estate to ARMS
Broken? It's fake and fraudulent. People are living in squalor and buildings fall down 2 years after being built. Scams are so prevalent on streets they have local motto something to effect keep head down, mind business. Dead bodies stay on street for hours and hours. No one comes to aid. People live in fear. Poverty is extreme. Scp is actively committing genocide. Their news is filled with fearmongering to citizens which is filled with dedicated time slots for American hate speech. They have a long way to go. Not even close. Ccp in no way shape or form contributes to world being better place. At all. U.S. is responsible for creating this beast by exploiting extremely cheap labor for profits. And no one trusts any numbers coming from china on any issue of any kind…fraudulent as they come. That's why all investments went through Hong kong. China deserves better.
Is China's economy crashing ? 4.9% growth last quarter looks pretty good compared to anybody else in the world.
Nothing is what it seems, which is the essence of “The Art of War.” In the latest instance of managing information, the horrible news out of China is meant to appear that the CCP is inept in managing the Chinese economy, such as the downriver flooding of the 3-Gorges dam, the bursting of the housing bubble, the blackouts and food shortages, the bankruptcy of even SOE’s. This is all intended to be the surface view of the present state of China. However, Xi assumes that we will then deduce that the CCP, underneath the surface, is really preparing the Chinese for war by purposely leaving them in need.
Regardless of how the media (and the Chinese-owned Youtube videos) are coloring the events of the last few months, the central motif or surface view is nothing but a red herring, because none of these failings are actual failures of the Communist system. In fact, the CCP is purposely mismanaging the economy to manufacture suffering. There are no coal shortages or need for electrical blackouts, since there is actually no lack of electricity, food and oil. Strictly speaking, the news out of China is disinformation, presented by the (and I emphasize) “inscrutable” CCP , a bit of purposeful stereotyping.
In other words, all this folderol is meant to appear like a dress rehearsal so that the Chinese can see what it’s like to have American bombers destroy their electric grid and interfere with their food supply. This dress rehearsal allows the Chinese people to see what it is they would need when the war comes and to prepare for those months of need. This heightened state of anxiety in the Chinese is needed to weld them together. Should the Americans feel so threatened that we do indeed launch a preemptive strike (oh, yes, we might), they will have less of a tendency to panic. More to the artfulness of these theatrics, this dress rehearsal has the added value of making the Chinese thankful when no war is needed to advance the political will of the CCP, as regards Taiwan.
That’s why Xi is telling people to hoard food. That’s why he’s creating blackouts to simulate a time when the people will have to watch for American bombers. Anyway, that’s what Xi expects our American think-tanks to deduce from the disinformation on China’s economy. But, we can’t help but laugh at this clumsy scenario. Does Xi actually think that we think he would actually start a war against Taiwan when the possible outcome for China is the blackouts (for fear of bombers) and food shortages for his people. Can you hear us laugh? Xi even believes that President Biden’s political advisers are so inbred that they will not understand that all this hullabaloo of war (underneath the surface of CCP ineptitude) is a ruse. It’s a bluff to make Congress and the President think that Xi is intending war. In fact, Xi intends to make us so fearful of a global war that we will allow Taiwan to be taken without our lifting a finger. As if!
For now, let Xi think that the stupid Americans missed his meaning entirely. We analyzed the situation and prefer that our people believe the disinformation at face value without seeing the preparations for a war footing. We prefer that our people see the CCP as weak and confused and inept. After all, we know this gambit for an unsophisticated power play. We know that this ruse is intended to make it seem that Xi threatens war without Xi having to say it out loud or “lose face” by not following through…which he won’t, not ever. All this Fake News about the Chinese economy is little more than ineptitude, a junior varsity play, just CCP noise and theatrics meaning nothing. Because, Taiwan is American soil.
China is crashing hard to the point don't mess with a democratic nations without us your nothing!!!
Also the Chinese government is spending billions of Dollars on their military not so much on social programs
China is the worst polluter in the world to pitch them as going green is comical. Those so called solar farms and wind farms are often not connected to anything and idle.
My opinion is that we went from a triple a rating to double a rating with no idea which leader to chose get us in or out. So good luck china, add fuel and we'll be taking notes on your solution results.
