What is the effect of overspeculation in western lands?

It leads to foreclosure and the closing of banks. When overspeculation of land occurs, banks give loans to people who can't afford it because they think the prices of land will increase. And when the prices don't increase, people who took out the loans can't repay them, banks are forced to foreclose on the land, and they gradually go out of business because of all the money they lost giving loans and never being repaid.
