But now, speaking to France’s L’Equipe newspaper, Shuai says she never alleged she suffered a sexual assault.

However, the interview was done in highly controlled circumstances in Beijing, leading some users on social media to say she was pressured.

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.
