Marc Faber : "As long as we have academics like Larry Summers, Ben Bernanke and Tim Geithner running the economic policies in the United States - as long as you have these people - I will never sell my gold and I continue to recommend people not to be market timers in gold because the market timers in gold... most of them don't own any gold anymore; they already sold it and are always waiting for a deep enough correction to buy it. What people should do is gradually accumulate gold and forget about temporary fluctuations."
