(#207) "The Fed will Destroy the World"

Marc Faber on the Federal Reserve's QE3 Announcement

As appeared on Bloomberg Television's "In the Loop" on 9/14/12

 

"Everything will collapse" is the consequence Gloom, Boom, & Doom's Marc Faber sees from the announcement of QE3, the Federal Reserve's latest 'stimulus' (and the fallacy and misconception of how money-printing can help employment). In a wondrously clarifying interview on Bloomberg TV on 9/14/12, Faber explained why he was 'happy', since "the asset values of his holdings will go up" but as a responsible citizen he is worried because "the monetary policies of the US will destroy the world." It truly is class warfare under a veil of 'its good for you' as he notes: "the fallacy of monetary policy in the U.S. is to believe this money will go to the man on the street. It won't. It goes to the Mayfair economy of the well-to-do people and boosts asset prices of Warhols."

Marc Faber, is a Swiss investor and publisher of the Gloom Boom & Doom Report newsletter and has also authored several books.  He is the director of Marc Faber Ltd which acts as an investment advisor and fund manager.
