The March data released today by China's National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) shows the market for new home sales continues slowing down very gradually in terms of volumes. More significantly, the past 2 months saw declines in land sales (land acquisitions by developers) on a year-to-date and 3-month year-on-year basis, which could potentially indicate a sharp change of the trend from 2018. This early signal is based off only 2 data points, though. Historically, land sales have been a strong predictor of future price growth (with a long lag) - as the most basic measure of supply.
