Jackson Hole Meeting did not produce anything

Marc Faber : Basically the Jackson Hole meeting did not produce anything that we investors did not know before. What was basically articulated by the Fed Chairman, Mr. Bernanke, was that if conditions warranted, there will be more QE3 and the conditions will eventually warrant more QEs and there will be QE3. The question is when will it happen and to what extent have equity markets and also property markets in the US already discounted QE3. - in Indian Economic Times

Some European Stocks Are Now Very Cheap

Marc Faber : The European markets, some of them like France, Italy, Spain, Greece and Portugal, two months ago were either below the 2009 low or close to the 2009 low on the S&P 500 Index that would be the equivalent of 666 (index points). So relative to other markets, some European stocks are now very inexpensive - in Indian Economic Times

Marc Faber : Invest in Italy, Spain, Portugal or France

Marc Faber : I would say the opportunity in my opinion, and as I have written about this in my reports, is essentially to now pick up some European shares at very distressed valuations.
Two years ago a book was published 'Invest in Europe Now'. Of course the timing was not particularly good and the markets since then in Europe have completely imploded. Now recently the markets have bounced off their lows in the case of Italy, Spain, Portugal and France by between 18% and 30% from the lows in June-July. The correction is now coming, but I do not think we will see new lows because whereas two years ago the sentiment was very optimistic about the Euro and about Europe, now it is at an extremely negative reading.
There is nobody who has anything favorable to say about Europe, but stocks are at discounting mechanism and they have pretty much discounted all bad news. - - in Indian Economic Times

Industrial Commodities Will Remain Under Pressure

Marc Faber : I am not that optimistic that we are at the beginning of a large rally in commodities in general because industrial commodities will remain under pressure due to the fact that the Chinese economy is slowing down considerably. - in Indian Economic Times
