Market crashes refer to large, sudden drops in asset prices in the absence of big news on the fundamentals—such as future asset payoffs. They exhibit some distinct features. Crashes are one-sided—there are no sudden market surges. Large selling pressures in the market typically accompany them. Moreover, the drop in prices occurs quickly but the recovery is much slower. Even though there is little consensus on what causes a crash, the lack of liquidity has always been identified as its symptom and has been blamed for exacerbating its consequences. In particular, crashes are commonly portrayed as market conditions in which the excessive selling pressure drives prices well below the expected value, while little new capital rushes into the housing market to take advantage of the price deviations.
This view is supported by the cumulating evidence that despite the profitable opportunities after a crash—at least as perceived by some observers—new capital flows in only after government intervention or long time lags. The question: is the secondary Polish real estate market crashing, a lack of liquidity and sudden price drops would indicate this is now happening in 2013.
