Description

The imminent default of the most indebted property developer, Evergrande, has triggered much debate amongst risk folk. Will there be spiralling of property prices started by dumping stock at fire-sale prices? Who is going to buy them? Are they catching a falling knife? The answer is that we do not know how things will unfold. We can only draw from history, consider other crises, and see if we can stitch together a stress test.

(Apologies to scholars of Nietzsche for this title)
