Recession in China could be a technical recession

Marc Faber : ..recession in China could be a technical recession , if you go and slow down from a growth rate of say ten percent to a growth rate of three percent then there is a recession , also I do not believe in the growth rate that China publishes , because if you had adjusted nominal GDP for the true rate of inflation then real growth is of course much slower , you know I want to tell you something that disturbs me in all emerging economies and in many other developed economies , from my taste in front of luxury hotels there are far too many Ferraries and Maseraties and Bentleys and this is not a good sign , you should see depression when conditions are depressed . I see a boom everywhere except for the working class and except for the lower middle class , but among the well-to-do people the wealth that is floating around and the prices you pay for high end properties is incredible and I think that will come to an end and a lot of people will lose a lot of money and so I am ultra careful at the present time ....."
