An economic bubble doesn’t require that the assets suddenly disappear upon the bubble popping.

The 2008 financial crisis was caused in part by the popping of a real estate bubble in the US. Those properties didn’t magically evaporate after the bubble popped, though many families couldn’t afford to keep their homes.

But at what cost? Who owns those properties now? Private investment firms.
