Both China and Canada are witnessing their greatest housing crises in history

Sharing is Caring!

There’s another real-estate crisis brewing in China — and it could even be worse than Evergrande’s 2021 woes (the PBOC can’t print this away)

Two years after Evergrande’s default triggered mayhem in the global markets, China’s ailing property sector is teetering on the brink of another crisis.

On Tuesday, Country Garden, the country’s biggest private-sector developer by sales, missed interest payments on two US-dollar-denominated bonds.

The company now has a 30-day grace period to avoid an official default.

On Wednesday, Kristy Hung, a Bloomberg Intelligence analyst, wrote: “Any default would impact China’s housing market more than Evergrande’s collapse as Country Garden has four times as many projects.”

A debt crisis at Country Garden will have a far-reaching impact on China’s housing market sentiment and could significantly weaken buyer confidence on solvent private developers, she added.
