Chinese Real Estate Bubble on 60 Minutes

Chinese Real Estate Bubble on 60 Minutes

Here is the link to a Bloomberg story that contains a link to the “60 Minutes” story. We have been following the story of this bubble for a while but nothing makes something “real” as when it turns up on “60 Minutes.” Economist Stephen Roach says that the ghost cities will someday be “thriving metropolitan areas.”

He may well be right, but the key question is what will happen between now and then.

What is the Mises Institute?

The Mises Institute is a non-profit organization that exists to promote teaching and research in the Austrian School of economics, individual freedom, honest history, and international peace, in the tradition of Ludwig von Mises and Murray N. Rothbard. 

Non-political, non-partisan, and non-PC, we advocate a radical shift in the intellectual climate, away from statism and toward a private property order. We believe that our foundational ideas are of permanent value, and oppose all efforts at compromise, sellout, and amalgamation of these ideas with fashionable political, cultural, and social doctrines inimical to their spirit.
