"There is a complete decoupling of the stock market from the real economy," said Zhang Xin, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder of SOHO China.

She argued that, in real estate sector in China, property leasing is very strong and real asset values are rising even as listed real estate companies trade at huge discounts in the public markets.

Despite criticism, China is making strong progress: domestic consumption has grown from 49 percent of GDP five years ago to 52.5 percent now.
