As Barron's notes in this recent interview,
Marc Faber view the world with a skeptical eye, and never hesitates to
speak his mind when things don't look quite right. In other words, he
would be the first in a crowd to tell you the emperor has no clothes,
and has done so early, often, and aptly in the case of numerous
investment bubbles. With even the world's bankers now concerned at 'unsustainable bubbles',
it is therefore unsurprising that in the discussion below, Faber
explains, among other things, the fallacy of the Fed's help "the problem
is the money doesn't flow into the system evenly, how with
money-printing "the majority loses, and the minority wins,"
and how, thanks to the further misallocation of capital, "people with
assets are all doomed, because prices are grossly inflated globally for
stocks and bonds." Faber says he buys gold every month, adding that "I
want to have some assets that aren't in the banking system. When the
asset bubble bursts, financial assets will be particularly vulnerable."
