MC張天賦演唱會2023｜尖沙咀Busking重執初心大唱多首金曲 攞獎平常心：觀眾識得一齊唱就夠

在《施政報告》公布後第五日，房屋局公布本港最新私樓供應量，最新數字達107,000個單位，重返今年第一季的紀錄新高，以全港一手吸納量計算，過去五年平均每年吸納15,975個單位，數字相當於全港6.7年吸納量，明顯是供過於求，都直接抵銷《施政報告》的減辣措施，政府寄望減辣帶動成交，推動發展商積極投地以確保庫房收益，似乎未必容易做得到。

107,000伙一手供應，裡面也分中短期供應，當中有20,000伙只批出動工紙，但發展商未真正動工的單位，都未必可在短時間內推出市場。就算我們把相關數字剔除，而只計算可即時推出市場的「樓花貨尾」及「現樓貨尾」，這裡也有86,300個單位，數字上也是紀錄新高。

一手市場供過於求，即使放寬額外印花稅，令高追蟹貨買家得以鬆綁，實際上也需要跟一手樓同步競爭。買二手樓有即買即住優勢，但一手現樓貨尾達18,300伙，只要發展商打價格戰，就算「額外印花稅」令高追蟹貨盤提前解禁，但並不代表業主在買賣過程中能佔上風，反而隨時要大幅度劈價，才得以保持競爭力，樓價只愈跌愈有。

特別是今日購買力已大不如前，否則政府不會把「買家印花稅」及「新住宅印花稅」稅率減半。只是當一手貨尾連同蟹貨盤一起釋放，境外客及換樓客的選擇大增，心態上自然更加揀擇。如果因市場劈價盤湧現，令樓價愈跌愈心寒，大家信心便會盡失，準買家取態可能會更審慎，同樣不利刺激成交。

因為仍保持足夠購買力的人，他們會否買樓，「信心」兩個字大於一切，但不利樓市信心的消息似乎未完全消除。外圍經濟不明朗，銀行持續加息，《施政報告》後銀行把估價進一步收緊、負資產大增，都難以令買家輕易對後市重拾信心。更重要一點，縱然供應層面貼近歷史高位，但《施政報告》卻看不到政府有意減慢造地，所釋出的訊息就是土地供應陸續有來。

因此，政府今次選擇減辣，而非撤辣，表面上說要取個「平衡」，但實際上卻令本已因辣招而扭曲的樓市，在半桶水鬆綁的情況下，會衍生出不同情景，加上影響樓市不利消息未消除，後市走勢更不知去向。原本打算政策傾斜發展商去貨，若發展商能去貨，自然有資金再投地，政府庫房可有保障，但如意算盤卻未必打得響。

政府最新公布財政狀況，繼續入不敷支。今財年首五個月，全港整體開支3,006億元，但卻只有1,178億元收入。就算扣除政府因發行綠債而進帳466億元，但財政赤字仍高達1,362億元。當然還有大半年追趕失地，前提就要視乎大市氣氛會否回穩、發展商會否積極投地，否則龐大的巨額赤字，終究要由辛苦儲蓄的財政儲備埋單。

今個財年開首，財政儲備有8,173億元，但現時已跌穿七字關口至6,986億元。這跟2018年度累積的11,709億元儲備、相當於26.4個月的政府開支相比，回首一看，原來幾年間已蒸發40%、相當於4,723億元，相當誇張。
