China Evergrande Group’s property sales plummeted in 2021 for the first time in at least a decade, as the giant developer slipped into default and buyer confidence faded. Evergrande, China’s second-biggest developer by sales in 2020, is the largest Chinese real estate developer by issuance of offshore, U.S. dollar-denominated debt, which stood at $19 billion last year.
A filing Tuesday showed the company’s contracted sales of properties totaled 443.02 billion yuan ($69.22 billion) last year, down 38.7% from the 723.25 billion yuan in contracted sales reported for 2020. It met about 60% of a 750 billion yuan target set at the start of the year.
More broadly, Chinese shares had their worst start to the new year since 2019, as investors took profit on some of their most successful bets in 2021.
Chinese stocks, hobbled by regulatory pressures and uneven economic growth, plummeted in 2021. The FXI China large-cap ETF fell 21% in its worst year since 2008. So the question is where to from here? Many investors are still seeing long term opportunity, as China is going to continue to be a big part of the global infrastructure. So the question is will investors be prepared to wait out the near-term turbulence. Will they stick with China?

More economists have said a house price correction is on the cards in Australia, echoing forecasts from the big four banks.
“Eventually, with wage growth remaining structurally weak, a higher interest rate could destabilise the housing market.”
And the latest data from RBA and APRA also highlight the changed dynamics.

We look at the “property experts” view of the markets, which appears to be on the turn.
Domain published an interesting article before Christmas, looking in particular at the Sydney property market, saying its one for the record books. To which I respond, maybe, but for all the wrong reasons.
Sue Williams wrote: Space: the final frontier – or, for those in the Sydney property market over the past year, the financial frontier. For the biggest trend in pandemic-plagued 2021 has turned out to be the demand for more room in, and around, our homes.
“It’s really been the year when we re-imagined the space in our houses and apartments,” says Domain chief of research and economics Nicola Powell.
“We wanted to have areas in our homes where we could work and, spending so much time indoors during lockdowns, we wanted more living space where we weren’t all on top of each other.
“That’s really driven a lot of the price growth of houses over that of apartments. But another big surprise of the year has been the price growth of three-bedroom units. Generally, the greater number of bedrooms, the more prices have risen.”
It’s been a strange year in so many ways. With rock-bottom interest rates continuing, no sooner did escalating property prices smash all previous records than they smashed them again three months later – with unprecedented back-to-back quarters of price rises over eight per cent.
As first-home buyers flooded back into the market in 2020, they were suddenly washed back out again by the pricing tsunami, with investors diving in to take their place.
Many were only able to dip their toes in early in 2021 because of the bank of mum and dad.
