Evergrande ($EV1A) - The second largest, Chinese real estate and construction group again warns of liquidity shortages. This is due to a sharp decline in the company's property sales. Attempts to sell some of the company's assets to generate new capital have also failed to bring much progress. Evergrande has taken on more than 260 billion euros in debt after years of aggressive expansion. At the current time, the group employs about 163,000 people. After the announcement of the impending liquidity shortage, numerous people (homebuyers, artisans & small investors) gathered in front of the group's headquarters in Shenzhen to demand their money back.
