Investors snap up metaverse real estate in virtual land boom

(NYTIMES) Justin Bieber performed at a live concert last month, but the show wasn't in a stadium or arena. Like recent performances from Ariana Grande, the Weeknd and Travis Scott, this concert was held in the metaverse, the online world that stretches the corners of the Internet into immersive, four-dimensional experiences. Fans from all over the globe watched Bieber's avatar sing songs from his hit album Justice. Investors were watching, too. Preparing for a digital land boom that appears just months away, they are snapping up concert venues, shopping malls and other properties in the metaverse. Interest in this digital universe skyrocketed in October when Mr Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook would be known as Meta, an effort to capitalise on the digital frontier. The global market for goods and services in the metaverse will soon be worth US$1 trillion (S$1.37 trillion), according to digital currency investor Grayscale. The metaverse comprises multiple digital realms. Each is like a 3D virtual city where avatars live, work and play. But real estate investing in the metaverse still is highly speculative, and no one knows for sure whether this boom is the next big thing or t...

China’s property developers struggle to find buyers for billions in assets

BEIJING (BLOOMBERG) - Property developers in China looking to raise badly needed cash by selling assets are finding it hard to strike deals as potential buyers in the sector hoard funds after home sales plunged and Beijing stepped up its borrowing crackdown. China Evergrande Group last month ended discussions to sell a controlling stake in its property-management business that would have raised about US$2.6 billion (S$3.5 billion). A plan to unload a trophy office tower in Hong Kong also stumbled, while Modern Land China defaulted on a US$250 million bond last week after it was unable to sell some assets, Cailian reported. Oceanwide Holdings is seeking to offload its main office complex in Beijing after a unit defaulted. The failure to sell holdings exacerbates the cash squeeze for some of the nation's property giants, many of which are shut out of financial markets due to soaring borrowing costs and Beijing's "three red lines" policy that limits lending in the industry. "The majority of prospective buyers of real estate assets under disposal are also developers, but under three red lines debt restrictions, many refrain from swallowing sizeable assets," said Mr Matthew Chow, a dire...

BNP Morningstar Initiates Coverage of CCMGT (9982.HK) with “BUY” rating

HONG KONG, Oct 20, 2021 - (ACN Newswire via SEAPRWire.com) - BNP Morningstar initiated coverage of Central China Management (9982.HK) with "BUY" rating and set its target price at HKD 3.92 per share for the following reasons:Project management services for the real estate sector have taken off recently in China, driven by rising land costs and increasing competition that sees small and midsize developers seek the services of project managers with established brands to help derive higher returns on their projects. According to the research report, Central China Management Company, as a leading project manager in China with a strong presence in Henan province, is expected to benefit from industry growth of 23% over the next five years.The Bank also expects that as the industry expands, there will be more spin-offs of project management units by smaller national and larger regional real estate developers given the attractive profitability. With the new entrants, the market share of leading companies' such as CCMGT should remain high over the next five years.BNP Morningstar is of the view that CCMGT can be regarded as a more defensive proxy to China's real estate growth given its asset...
