The Shock of Sweden's Housing Market Is Hitting the Country's Currency
When will we learn that a &quot;strong&quot; housing market is not necessarily a good thing? High housing prices are great for those who already owned houses but terrible for everyone else (e.g. the entire generations born after prices became inflated). Not to mention people are greedy and will over leverage themselves when interest rates are good. No country should let the &quot;landed gentry&quot; hold them hostage over interest rates or tax policy so that their assets - many of which they do not even actually own - can appreciate.
