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.

    How were they shielded? Do you have a source I can read? I’m genuinely interested.

    I remember reading that there were protests because people bought condos and were essentially told they were never going to get completed. Did those people get a refund from the government or the company?

      Not afaik. Anyone buying an unfinished condo though likely already has a home, specially since China’s home-ownership is about 90%.

      And if they don’t, they can buy one for much cheaper now cuz house prices have gone down thanks to this real estate bubble being popped. And China already has 600 million vacant homes.

      This also coincides with the CPC moving funding from the overinflated real estate sector to the high tech sector btw.

      particularly EVs

      Geopolitical economy report has a more in-depth video on this.
