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.

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..."
