Stock Market Correction Can Continue As Things In Europe Worsen.

Marc Faber is out with his latest report which discusses his outlook for stocks, bonds, commodities, gold, and the dollar. Here are a few highlights:

Equity Markets--Last month, Faber was somewhat cautious on US stocks, saying that sentiment was overly bullish and vulnerable to a correction. So far, we have seen a slight decline in stocks as the QE euphoria fades and worries mount in the PIIGS. Faber thinks the correction could continue as things in Europe worsen. However, he does not expect the market to fall below the 1010-1050 range on the S&P 500 because of the Bernanke. Of all the developed markets, Faber likes Japan the most. He thinks a declining yen will help Japanese equities. Furthermore, Japan is under owned by institutions.

The Impact Of The Property Bubble In China.

"We already have a property bubble in China, but that does not mean that the whole economy will go into recession. And I would add to it, that even if there is a slowdown in China, its an huge country, like the US was in the 19th century and still is, so you can have a some sectors of the economy going into recession and other sectors still expanding."
