Abstract:
Rising house prices could create speculation opportunities for businesses. Many firms are trying to take advantage of these opportunities for quick returns. The results show that speculation in the housing market negatively affects firms productivity by crowding out investment in research and development and manufacturing capital assets, and that the positive effects of balance sheet strengthening and improved financial capacity are outweighed by the crowding out effect.
