Stocks & Real Estate are better than Cash

I would imagine that real estate is relatively safe because it’s widely owned by a large portion of the population. It may go down in value and it may be taxed away but it’s feasibly safe. 

If you look at Germany in 1928, the large and the more stable companies from Siemens to whatever it is, say, BASF, they survived. And so you were better off in stocks in the long run to wars and hyperinflation than in cash and bonds.

Cash in US Dollars is King

MARC FABER : I hold lots of cash, in U.S. dollars. Plus, I like some other investments such as the India Capital Fund, which is available to accredited investors. The fundamentals of Kazakhstan are strong,

but the country's bonds have rallied. Thus, I prefer shares of Kazkommertsbank, which trade for less than one times book. Finally, the Euphrates Iraq Fund is a way to play an early-stage frontier market that is starting to attract local and foreign capital.

Marc Faber : you shouldnt own cash & government bonds

Marc Faber : Well the positive aspect of my negative view is essentially that you shouldn’t own cash and government bonds but you should be in assets like real estate or equities or precious metals or in commodities.That is the positive view. In other words, the more negative you are about the world and the geopolitical trends which will lead to war, the more likely it is that you will do better in equities than say in bonds and cash.  - in www.businessinsider.com

Marc Faber : stocks may adjust in real terms but not necessarily in nominal terms to the extent that the super bears are predicting

Marc Faber : not convinced of austerity measures as the way to go , Expect fiscal deficit to remain high

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 ...

Marc Faber : Cash and bonds will be very dangerous

SEOUL: Investor Marc Faber said cash and bonds will be “very dangerous” in the next 10 years as governments increase money supply to cover fiscal deficits.

“There’s no other way out but to print money,” Faber, the publisher of the Gloom, Boom & Doom report, said at a forum in Seoul on Wednesday. “In the long run, all paper money will go exactly to its intrinsic value, which is zero.” Faber advised investors to protect themselves with assets such as gold and silver. source Bloomberg.com
