9% decline... Hmm, Trump is causing trouble again. The good days for institutions to scoop up real estate might be coming to an end. Institutions rushing to buy houses really should be regulated. Maybe retail investors will have a chance now? Blackstone is really in trouble this time, but I think if policies are truly implemented, it could be a positive for ordinary people. Does Trump want to challenge the cake of institutional investment? The political risk is too high... But on the other hand, large-scale acquisitions of single-family homes by institutions have indeed driven up housing prices. This should be restricted. I'm bearish on Blackstone now. Any movement in housing policy could cause the entire sector to shake.

Blackstone's 9% decline is really a direct hit from policy, leaving institutional investors stunned A single statement from Trump wiped out hundreds of billions in market value; the power of politics is indeed fierce Wait, can he really ban institutional purchases of homes? Is this credible or just another big talk? Single-family homes are inherently a obsession for Americans; targeting institutional investors can indeed win public support Why do I feel the market might rebound after this wave? Such policies usually just cause some turbulence and then fade away Blackstone's holdings are likely to be liquidated; the era of institutional landlords might be coming to an end

Blackstone took a heavy hit this time... As the housing purchase ban was announced, institutional investors panicked. Will this policy truly change the rules of the real estate game, or is it just another big move to scare people? Blackstone dropped 9%, should retail investors buy the dip or keep watching the show... Is the era of institutions harvesting individual properties really coming to an end? Honestly, is the opportunity for ordinary people to buy a house finally here?

Blackstone drops 9%, now institutional bottom-fishing for single-family homes is blocked, sounds like President Chuan is about to stir up trouble again.
