We Will See QE3

QE3 depends on the S&P, if the S&P drops 100-200 points, then yes, for sure we will have QE3 but if the S&P stays here or even goes up, the likelihood of QE3 diminishes

“The S&P went up from 666 on March 6 2009 to 1,370 [currently] so it has more than doubled and that has to do with QE1 and QE2,” he said.

Faber expects to see high volatility in all asset classes over the next few years, says the ideal asset allocation for the moment is 25 percent each in equities, real estate or real estate related equities, cash and gold. “I don’t think (investors) should be shooting for huge gains, but rather for preservation in capital,” he said.


Marc Faber is a famous contrarian investor and the publisher of the Gloom Boom & Doom Report newsletter.
