even as policymakers have at last begun to embrace building, a new school of thought has gained prominence. Its advocates, the most vocal of whom is Ian Mulheirn of Oxford Economics, a consultancy, say high prices have little to do with supply shortages. They put the blame somewhere else: global financial markets.

Most studies of Britain’s housing market link a 1% increase in the number of houses to a fall of around 2% in prices. If that is accurate, supply constraints cannot explain a boom as big as Britain’s. Applying these numbers, Mr Mulheirn calculates that had Britain built 300,000 houses per year since 1996, rather than around 200,000, adding 9% to Britain’s housing stock, prices would still have risen by about 134% in real terms in 1996-2017.

The true explanation, the argument goes, is found by viewing a house as a financial asset

La hipoteca, de 540.000 euros y a treinta años, ha sido suscrita para una propiedad al 50% entre los dos miembros de la pareja y será incorporada a los portales de transparencia del Congreso y de la web de Podemos en los próximas días, según fuentes de la formación.

El fenómeno de la apertura de inmobiliarias tomó fuerza el año pasado, y el acelerón continúa al inicio de 2018. Según el Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE), solo en enero se crearon 1.044 sociedades inmobiliarias, financieras y de seguros, lo que supone un crecimiento interanual del 47,9%. En número de nuevos establecimientos abiertos, el sector queda solo por detrás del comercio.

Para Encinar, este crecimiento de la creación de inmobiliarias no supone una burbuja del sector como la de antes de la crisis económica. "El mercado se autorregula y lo que muchos llaman burbuja es una recuperación más acelerada de un sector que sufrió mucho durante la crisis", asegura.

What causes housing bubbles? A theoretical and empirical inquiry

The paper investigates in how far lax monetary policy (defined as deviations from prescriptive monetary policy rules or past trends) and/or financial innovation can be seen as a cause for housing price bubbles in industrialized countries.

In conclusion, one can say that the position widely held in the policy debate that a lax monetary policy causes housing bubbles has extremely weak scientific foundation, both theoretically and empirically.

? I just returned from China after more than half a decade there. This is definitely not what is going on on the ground. Labor prices are one of the biggest issues in China now and subsidies are definitely what China uses extensively to manage its economy. I raised money in both directions for US and Chinese startups and basically NO ONE does business in China without a subsidy. Due to the fact that business types are a "may" approve basis rather than a "shall" approve (you can only open approved business types, instead of being prohibited from open certain business types), businesses are intertwined with the government from the onset at every level. Not a single Chinese startup I dealt with did not have government subsidized land, and most had subsidized facilities, equipment, and for those with the best relationships, you even get "subsidized" regulations, which is insane because in the my industry (what I will broadly categorize as healthcare), regulations basically dictate your time to market. The Chinese government will pick and choose that order (within time reason) according to their interests. As early as 2007 I was already beginning to meet people who did not want to setup shop in China due to labor costs, so I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Lastly I have no idea what specific WTO interventions there have been, but the condition on the ground has not changed - retail prices of American goods in China are roughly 200-300% of what they are in America. Everything from a $3 cherry Coke to a $9 bag of Doritos to a $150K Mustang GT. I recently just had a bunch of plastic accessories shipped to me from China for my camera and the prices were the same (exclusive of postage) from the prices I saw in person there....so maybe the politics in a few industries led to some indusry-specific action I assume, but the broader state of trade with China has not changed. It's still completely idiotic and nonsensical from an American perspective.

On Wednesday, Trump signed proclamations honoring June as Great Outdoors Month, National Homeownership Month, African-American Music Appreciation Month, and National Ocean Month. No such proclamation was released for LGBT Pride Month.

The Federal Reserve Bank of New York today issued its Quarterly Report on Household Debt and Credit, which reported that total household debt reached $12.73 trillion in the first quarter of 2017 and finally surpassed its $12.68 trillion peak reached during the recession in 2008.

Suppose there were a way to pump up the economy, reduce inequality and put an end to destructive housing bubbles like the one that contributed to the Great Recession. The idea would be simple, but not easy, requiring a wholesale reframing of the United States economy and housing market.

The solution: Americans, together and all at once, would have to stop thinking about their homes as an investment.

The virtues of homeownership are so ingrained in the American psyche that we often forget that housing is also a source of economic stress. Rising milk prices are regarded as a household tragedy for some, and spiking gas prices stoke national outrage. But whenever home prices go up, it’s “a recovery,” even though that recovery also means millions of people can no longer afford to buy.
