Marc Faber : one day the Markets will punish the Keynesians
Marc Faber : “The problem with shorting the markets nowadays is that you have this
huge intervention by governments. Look at bonds of Italy Portugal and
Spain–they rallied last year, there was a huge profit opportunity, and I
admit that I missed it, but the profit opportunity came about as a
result of government intervention. I feel the markets are — some people
say it is intervention. I can call it manipulation. If manipulation
continues, you do not know how far they will go. The only thing I know
is one day the markets will punish the interventionists, the Keynesians
and the monetary that the Federal Reserve and ECB has enforced because
the markets will be more powerful one day. How will this look like? Will
the bond market collapse or equity markets become a bubble, which would
be embarrassing for the Fed’s sake if the U.S. market became a gigantic
bubble and at the same time the economy does not recover.”
