Oil may go up substantially from current levels: Marc Faber

Speaking to CNBC-TV18, investment guru Marc Faber said oil prices could go up substantially from current levels.

Marc Faber : ..."...if you look at some other commodities like copper, then obviously oil prices could go up substantially even from these levels. I don’t think that oil is expensive compared to other commodities or compared to other goods prices in the world. But that would obviously depend on some political problems — some interruptions in oil supplies or a possibility of the global economy experiencing some kind of a crackup boom. A crackup boom is a boom that is driven by artificially low interest rates, easy monetary policies and debt growth.

The private sector debt growth has slowed down but it has turned up again. At the same time we have, of course, a huge expansion in government debt. That should not be forgotten.

These crackup booms don’t last. They are not sustainable but they can last six months to one year to 18 months and then a renewed setback occurs in the global economy....."

what has happened in Egypt will happen in Pakistan says Marc Faber

Marc Faber : “You may not have the problem in Saudi Arabia and the Emirates because there the governments can heavily subsidize food if they want to, but I’m particularly worried that what has happened in Egypt will happen in Pakistan.

I think Egypt is a reminder to people that politics and social events and geopolitics have a meaningful impact on asset markets." - in CNBC

Faber Bearish On Emerging Markets

Dr. Marc Faber remains Bearish On Emerging Markets
"Faber remains very bearish on emerging markets in general (Brazil, India, etc). He notes that many failed to make new highs in January, despite favorable market conditions, which could indicate a major top in some emerging markets. Faber thinks emerging markets could fall between 20-30%. In fact, this would be a great buying opportunity for investors." - in iStockAnalyst, from the Gloom, Boom & Doom Report

Commodities Are Overbought. Expect Downside Volatility.

Dr. Marc Faber is concerned about commodities, as they are currently very overbought by almost any measure. He goes on to say that commodities seem to have reached the parabola stage--going straight up, which is usually the very end of the move. Yes, it could last longer than anyone expects, but at some point prices will collapse again, as they did back in 2008.

This cycle, Faber notes, always occurs as higher prices lead to an increase in supply, which eventually overwhelms the market causing prices to fall. The cycle is longer for industrial commodities compared to agricultural prices as it is harder to build a new copper mine than it is for a farmer to plant more soybeans.

This cycle will play out even with the Fed's money printing. Investors should prepare for some downside volatility in commodity prices." - in commodity online

Outlook for 2011 on a Belgian TV - 15 December 2010

Marc Faber, visionary and bestselling author of economic trends is the main guest on Outlook 2011. Marc Faber understands like no other art to deliver more accurate financial and economic trends to predict. And he is not afraid to back against the prevailing opinion should be granted.



Marc Faber :" I think what you need to avoid are government bonds , now can they rally for ten days ? it could be the case but in general you do not want to be in sovereign bonds certainly not of countries like Spain Portugal Greece Ireland Iceland and so forth , because they will have to be restructured , but the problem is usually when you have bad apples in your family the whole family becomes rotten and so all the European governments in my opinion will have government debts that probably will become difficult to pay off or even meet the interest payment on the government debt ....I am not interested in Belgium in the sense that the world has six billion people we have 1.3 billion people in China one billion in India , and I live in Asia , Asia 3.6 billion people , it is a growing region it is demographically young with the exception of Japan , and so I have a special knowledge about Asia and therefore I also invest in Asia and I have two or three investments in Switzerland but hardly any ....On the global scale whether Ireland exists or does not exist even if Spain exists or does not exist or Belgium exists or does not exist is completely irrelevant it is sad to think of oneself that I am completely irrelevant but that's the fact of economic life today..."

If I were an investor, I would have some exposure to energy : Marc Faber

Marc Faber : "...Yes. If I were an investor, I would have some exposure to energy. Of course, the price will fluctuate but if I look at the dynamics of demand and supply, over time the demand will exceed the supply because what has happened since 2007 is that in the developed economies, the demand for oil and energy has come down, but in emerging economies, it has continued to grow. However, now the demand is picking up in the developed economies like the US and Europe. So, global oil demand is now reaching a new high above the 2007 levels. Therefore, prices will rather trend upwards than downwards. ....

The dollar is somewhat oversold : Marc Faber

Marc Faber : The dollar is somewhat oversold, and in the past 2-3 months, the sentiment about the US dollar was extremely negative. I would take a rather positive view of the US dollar, not because there is anything good about the US dollar but because the other currencies are no better. My preferred currency remains gold and silver.

There are some question marks about the data published by China : Marc Faber

Marc Faber : ....There are some question marks about the data published by China. My view would be that inflation in China is just about the same level as in India. In other words, it is much higher than what the government is publishing. So, real growth and inflation-adjusted growth is probably much lower than what they published. If you look at the bank lending rate and the deposit rate, we have a very negative real interest rate, in other worlds, interest rate adjusted for inflation. That leads inevitably to some kind of a bubble and every bubble bursts. Now, if you ask me when will the bubble burst, tomorrow or in three years, I do not know. I just say that it is a dangerous situation. Moreover, if you have very strong economic growth and the stock market does not perform well and China has been a really bad performer in 2010, then I would be a little bit careful about making large commitments to China. ....
