We cannot blame Wall Street and well-to-do people for the mishap

Marc Faber : I think normal is very difficult to define, but very clearly it is not normal where we are now. But we cannot blame Wall Street and well-to-do people for the mishap, for this ratio to have exploded on the upside. We have to blame essentially expansionary monetary policies that favor assets. So you have low consumer price inflation, you have no wage inflation. In fact, the problem in America is that real wages, real compensation has been down since the 1970s. But at the same time, asset prices, equities, real estate and so forth have gone up dramatically, and that favors people who have these assets. And so the ratio expanded and you have now a record wealth, inequality, and income inequality. - In Bloomberg Surveillance
