What Do We Need to Know?
• Better measures of price and quantity are not enoughp q y g– Cannot tell all that much just by looking at P and Q
• Intersection of supply and demand
• What do local market supply and demand fundamentals look like in Chinese housing markets?

Conclusions
• Need more effort on measurement of prices in particular– China needs a S&P/Case‐Shiller price index– Ability to gauge land market is a real advantage
• Keep context in mind when examining prices and quantitiesChi i t t d f l b– Chinese prices started from very low base
– China is a high growth and high volatility market
• Do not see much value in trying to put the label ‘bubble’ on• Do not see much value in trying to put the label bubble on these markets– Very short time series, with imperfect data– Still, no doubt Chinese housing markets are very riskyStill, no doubt Chinese housing markets are very risky
• ‘Priced to perfection’ in the following sense: even in fundamentally strong Tier 1 cities, relatively small changes in expectations, absent countervailing rent increases, will lead to large negative changes in price levels per Poterba’s user cost framework

Conclusions
• Beyond ‘rich’ pricing, supply appears to have outpaced y p g, pp y pp pdemand over the last decade, not just the last year, in various markets
Primarily but not exclusively in the interior of the country– Primarily, but not exclusively, in the interior of the country – Any negative demand shock will occur in an environment of weak
fundamentals in these places—this combination always leads to large price declines in any durable goods market and housing is a durableprice declines in any durable goods market, and housing is a durable good
