Marc Faber : S&P 500 may see more bounce



Marc Faber, author and publisher of the Gloom Boom and Doom Report, says the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index might see a little bit of more bounce but will really stay rangebound. He also says deficits rising around the world will be a big problem.Marc Faber : Well Basically we got very over sold at the beginning of July and since then we rallied quite strongly , I think that we can rally some what more but if we look at the S&P the low was 1010 and the previous support was 1040 and the top at the end of April was 1219 so around 1170 there is a lot of resistance and it will be very difficult for the market to get through that resistance ....we have to distinguish between what central Banks and the governments in the western world say and what they will do , I am not a great believer in this austerity that they are proclaiming , I think the fiscal deficit will actually stay very high or even increase and I think that if they decrease the fiscal deficit then it will be offset by very expansionary monetary policy in other words monetisation , so the whole burden to support the economy will fall on the monetary policies then they'll print money like crazy and so I would not pay too much attention to what they say but to what the markets do and it seems to me that the people that predicted the DOW JONES 1000 or S&P 500 or S&P 200 I think they're misreading the facts that under fiat monetary system you can print endless quantity of money and so stocks may adjust in real terms but not necessarily in nominal terms to the extent that the super bears are predicting ...
Nouriel Roubini Gary Shilling David Rosenberg these are the true deflationists says doctor Marc Faber they advice to be in US government bonds and to basically avoid everything else ...adds Marc Faber : I do not think that the US Bonds are desirable investment for the next 5-10 years....Investments in US Bonds and cash may be a very risky strategy in the long run , Dr Faber rather sees inflation coming than deflation : I am not a great believer in deflation , all the prices around the world are going up says Dr Faber ...

“I am not a great believer in this austerity that they are proclaiming,” Faber said in a recent interview
“I think the fiscal deficit will actually stay very high or even increase," he said. "And I think that if they decrease the fiscal deficit then it will be offset by very expansionary monetary policy, in other words monetization, so the whole burden to support the economy will fall on monetary policies, then they’ll print money like crazy,” he said.“Under a fiat monetary system you can print endless quantities of money and so stocks may adjust in real terms but not necessarily in nominal terms to the extent that the super bears are predicting.”
Marc Faber, investment guru and editor and publisher “The Gloom, Boom & Doom” report, said that markets were in an oversold zone in early July and since then global markets have rallied strongly and could rally somewhat more.
