China's struggling property developers won't be getting a major bailout, authorities indicated, warning that those who "harm the interests of the masses" will be punished.
China has said they are going to take over projects under construction to finish them, which is good.
However, China still has to deal with a property glut, an elderly population who mainly used real estate to save for retirement, and local governments who needed real estate development to fund their budgets.
China is going to have to spend significant parts of its surplus dealing with this.
A property glut? Look at China’s urbanization rate. A short-term oversupply is easily consumed by increasing urbanization. You cannot apply the American model to an economy in a different state of development.
This has been an internal Chinese determination. China has stopped building large skyscrapers and mass transit with this being determined on the national level since pre-Covid.
