Marc Faber discusses his latest findings:
- Smaller Asian markets have performed very well since the March 2009 low and likely won't do well in 2013.
- He thinks the loose money that is sloshing around the world will find its way to Asian markets that have underperformed (China, Vietnam, Japan).
- Faber is very negative on 2013, so he doesn't think investors have to own stocks.
- Government intervention in the financial markets are making it extremely hard to make predictions about direction of the markets.
- He doesn't particularly like any asset class at this point in time.
- Faber thinks gold could drop 10% in the short term, but he keeps owning it as an insurance policy.
