Marc Faber Investment Advice & Investment Tips
- Don’t confuse luck with insight – Faber is famous for advising his clients to get out of the stock market one week before the October 1987 crash. However Faber said that this prediction was “accidental”.
- Market Timing is very difficult
- There is no value in US bonds – His current tag-line is: ‘buy a $100 US bond and frame it to teach your children about inflation by watching the US bond value diminish to almost nothing over the next 20 years.
- Buy gold and other metals – He has said that investors should consider holding part of their wealth in the form of precious metals “because they can be carried”.
- Faber believes there are few value investments available, except for farmland and real estate in some emerging markets like Russia, Paraguay, and Uruguay

The latest news on Cocoa prices is Cocoa prices on London market are at 30 year high, and cocoa has already jumped 150 percent since 2008.
So what is driving this upward trend in cocoa prices?
According to an interesting piece in NYT.
In a stroke, a hedge fund manager here named Anthony Ward has all but cornered the market in cocoa. By one estimate, he has bought enough to make more than five billion chocolate bars.
Mr. Ward purchases have created a shortage of cocoa in the market and rival traders are crying foul, saying Mr. Ward is stockpiling cocoa in a bid to drive up already high prices so he can sell later at a big profit.
If the next cocoa harvest falls below expectation we should expect the prices of cocoa to shoot even higher.
