China's housing bubble is getting VERY close to blowing up. It makes the US housing bubble look like a bunch of amateurs. The Aussies don't have as bad of a bubble but it's getting ready to pop also.

Besides China's Jun manufactures PMI, HSBC China Jun PMI (released much earlier) fell to a 14-month low of 50.4 from 52.7 in May due to decline in new orders and production. [DLR/YEN] is at session low, dealing with the 88.00 protection orders, while the Nikkei-225 starts its PM session one step lower.

he just means i think that they can't keep building a new cubicle for each citizen...real estate bubble. holding everyones debt creates bubbles everywhere else that buys stuff from them. they slow down it kills australia cause that's who buys the stuff...i don't know the true definition of the rule of 72 but more or less I believe he's getting at the bubble is gonna burst...they're people are killing theirselves because of the work and it doesn't seem that they've ever really cared too much for their people, employment bubble(currency unpeg helps but it hasn't yet for some reason)

edit: it would be cool though to see the G man himself break it down a little better tho ocourse

I understand that it's a bubble filled with crap that's going to burst.

The rule of 72 is to measure how long an investment takes to double up. Take 72 and divide it by the interest rate.

What I don't get is how the rule of 72 fits into this.

Rule of 72 is that an investment doubles with ~72% of interest. 8% x 9 yrs, 7% x 10 yrs, 6% x 12 yrs, etc. Roughly works out to doubling your money.

yeah...hopefully that post isnt' extracted lol, it's a real rule I swear...just one of those double meanings i guess

edit: on a more serious note..driver55 told us months ago that 1.0624 would be a reference for a "LONG time"..as high as we got, i didn't think we'd get back down that low this soon..we are getting close though and I'll try building some longs starting there on down to 1.0500

Ah, he must be referring to China's hyper growth rate over the last several years.

Edit: sorry on the edit to the previous post you quoted; it essentially stated the same thing as Jay's post.

Price printing 2200..

Will take half off my half lot "hunch short" at 2296 (LOD + spread) and set SL to +2 and TP to 2172.

Methinks it'll hit something sooner or later...


Moral of this story will be "it's not sellin at the Bottom if it goes Lower..."

apply it to china. we are 20 years into high percentages of growth. some housing prices have gone up 20% a month. divide 20 into 72 and this is how long it takes for money (house) to double in value. so in a aprox 3.5 months a home in some areas has doubled in price. at some point these homes will cost more then they can sell for. at that point the mortgage holder (bank) will fail. 20% is high and not the norm but even at smaller amounts its still out rages. for the ones who bought last. when the last ones in cant afford their homes it will have a domino affect. on the entire economy.

as of 6 months ago there's enough office space in china, for every man women and child to have a cubicle. yet more is being built each day. rule of 72 takes no prisoners.. this is it in the simplest terms. "mule that shit fast don't shit long"
time is not a friend of china atm
