When you're dealing with decades of property bubble accumulation, there's no magic fix—prices have to come down, and all that excess capacity needs to get cleared out of the system. Sounds harsh, but that's how markets actually reset. The tricky part? If you keep trying to artificially prop up prices and pump new development into the mix, you're not solving the problem. You're just dragging out the pain and making the final bill even bigger. It's like trying to hold your breath underwater—sooner or later, you have to surface. The longer you delay the correction, the messier it gets.

That's quite straightforward. Isn't this just talking about the housing market in certain countries? Toughing it out will only get worse and worse.

lmao this is literally what happened with gpu mining back in 2017... everyone kept throwing more hardware at it instead of letting the market actually breathe, and guess who got left holding overpriced asics? me. anyway yeah the real estate thing is just the same cycle playing out on a slower timescale, no l2 solution for real estate unfortunately

The statement is correct, but the real issue is that the policymakers are reluctant to let go at all; we'll have to see how things develop later.

Housing prices must fall, there's nothing to discuss about that, it's just about clearing out the holdings. Struggling on will only make things worse and worse.
