Introduction Experiments in laboratory asset markets suggest
that When an asset market involves a large number of
uninformed and inexperienced participants, bubble is a standard state of affairs.
As bubble arises, even the informed and experienced traders may also ride on the bubble. (Smith, Suchanek et al. 1988; Caginalp, Porter et al. 1998; Caginalp, Porter et al. 2000a; Caginalp, Porter et al. 2000b; Caginalp, Porter et al. 2001)
Such observations call for modifications to the conventional analytical framework which assumes that asset markets are continuously efficient.

Introduction Speculative asset price bubble is potentially an
interesting topic to both policy makers and market investors
Although they may not use the term “bubble” when talking about one.
Investors are interested in making the most out of a bull market, without being stranded when the bubble deflates
It is also an important issue for the policy makers, although most of them are so far reluctant to face it.

Introduction The bubble literature can be roughly
divided into three strands. i. To prove or disprove the existence of a
bubble in an asset price.
ii. To measure the proportion of that price which is purely bubble.
iii. To forecast How fast the bubble increases How likely the bubble will burst in the next
period; When the bubble is purged eventually, in
what manner will that happen?

2. Model

Model Model is based on (Caginalp and
Ermentrout 1990; and Caginalp and Balenovich 1999)
![Page 9: Housing Price, Mortgage Lending and Speculative Bubble: a UK perspective Dr Qin Xiao University of Aberdeen Business School q.xiao@abdn.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5697c0021a28abf838cc2d06/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Model Assumptions prices adjust as a result of excess
demand; excess demand depends on the relative
supply of the housing to the mortgage supply, both finite though not fixed;
The supply of the mortgage is a function of the price dynamics
![Page 10: Housing Price, Mortgage Lending and Speculative Bubble: a UK perspective Dr Qin Xiao University of Aberdeen Business School q.xiao@abdn.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5697c0021a28abf838cc2d06/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Model Each unit of wealth is in one of two states:
housing or cash. The fraction of the wealth in housing asset
is

Model Participants are both housing and
cash holders. At any time, a typical investor will
buy housing with probability k and sell it with probability 1-k

3. Empirical Investigations
![Page 17: Housing Price, Mortgage Lending and Speculative Bubble: a UK perspective Dr Qin Xiao University of Aberdeen Business School q.xiao@abdn.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5697c0021a28abf838cc2d06/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Empirical Questions How much of the house price and
mortgage growth in UK can be explained by this model?
The model implies two forces are at play: one is a stabilizer, the other destabilizer What is the empirical evidence on the
relative strengths of the two?

Building the Statistical Model The fundamental price: approximated by
GDP. The liquidity: approximated by housing
loan Cross products between pairs of
regressors implied by the model are also examined.
Variables are deflated by RPI if appropriate The regressors are selected using stepwise
regressions.

Work remains Use a convergence measure to investigate the
forecast power of the model The significance level of the Markov-switching
model is to be established using Monte Carlo experiments
Simulate the time paths of house price and housing loans implied by the statistical model to illustrate The origin of the bubble The propagation mechanism of the bubble The stability of the system

4. Tentative Conclusions
![Page 38: Housing Price, Mortgage Lending and Speculative Bubble: a UK perspective Dr Qin Xiao University of Aberdeen Business School q.xiao@abdn.ac.uk](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/5697c0021a28abf838cc2d06/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Tentative Conclusions We have investigated a model in which a
housing price bubble arises as a result of trend following sentiment
The model takes into account of the feedback effects between housing prices and mortgage lending;
It also accounts for changing sentiment in the market
The application of this model to UK housing market confirms that the model roughly explains 70% of the overall variations of both prices and housing loans.
The significance and forecast ability of the model are still to be established
