Faber got an extended segment on Bloomberg in the wee hours last night:


- Even Faber is using Facebook, but he won’t be buying the IPO because it doesn’t meet his criteria of undervaluation.


- He likes to buy assets that are out of favor, and noted he was recently in Arizona where you can buy a beautiful house for $150,000.


- Tidal wave of central bank created liquidity can help asset prices even if the economy is weak.


- All of this money printing has created one bubble after another. Tech bubble, real estate bubble, commodities bubble.


- He thinks this year will have a strong equity market through April but then weaken.


- Is putting his money on Obama for reelection because of lack of viable Republican candidates.
