China property prices increase
China's home prices showed the biggest rise in a year, reported SouFun Holdings Ltd., the owner of country's major real estate website. Real estate prices gained 0.3% to 8,717 yuan ($1,369) per square meter in July, the second monthly gain and the strongest increase since June 2011. The back-to-back monthly rise posted the "turning point" for China's real estate market.
