Marc Faber – A Sell Off Will Happen

“The stock market’s run will result in either a 20 percent correction or a more nasty sell off at some point this year.” “We’re up very substantially, I think investors who today rush into stocks should be reminded of that.” “There are two possible scenarios. Either a 20 percent correction for stocks and then a move higher, or a scenario that is similar to 1987 or 2000 when stocks rise strongly early in the year only to drop sharply.” - Marc Faber

Faber said he expected China's economic growth to be much lower in reality, and even hinted towards a recession in some sectors of the economy.
