Marc Faber recommends precious metals for the average investor

In an interview with ET Now Dr Marc Faber advises the average investor to go for physical gold and silver :" For the typical investor, I would look at precious metals. They are now correcting on the downside, but I do not think there is a huge downside risk. I would recommend investors to gradually accumulate precious metals." he said , and when asked which one of the precious metals he prefers gold or silver he answered " They move in the same direction, and silver is more volatile. Each individual has to decide himself what he prefers - a more volatile commodity or a more steady commodity. I prefer gold for a variety of reasons, but I can see that may be silver will outperform gold in a bull market."
