๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ CHINAโ€™S REAL ESTATE JUST HIT ITS LOWEST LEVEL SINCE 2005.


The index peaked at 114 in 2021.
Today it sits at 86.
Thatโ€™s a 25% collapse in four years.
Real estate wasnโ€™t just another sector.
It was 25% of Chinaโ€™s entire GDP.
70% of household wealth was tied directly to property.
That wealth is now being permanently destroyed, on a scale never seen before.
For decades, local governments funded themselves almost entirely through land sales.
That revenue source has collapsed.
Local government debt now stands at $18.9 TRILLION.
Two thirds of all new borrowing is being used just to service old debt.
Meanwhile:
โ€ข 80 million homes sit empty with no buyers in sight.
โ€ข Evergrande collapsed with $300 billion in liabilities and got liquidated.
โ€ข China Vanke is desperately fighting to avoid the same fate.
Beijing has officially declared the old model dead:
High debt. High leverage. High turnover.
Buried. Without a replacement ready.
This isnโ€™t a housing correction.
This is the largest ongoing wealth destruction event in the world right now.
Western markets are pricing in almost none of it.
The second order effects havenโ€™t even started.
