• The cause of the sell-off is that markets went up too much, too quickly
• The market was overbought, ahead of itself, and headed for a correction

The future isn’t rosy for the U.S. in 2010. Marc Faber expects 2010 to be much more difficult after a 2009 stock run from its March lows. One of the biggest, if not the biggest, concern for Dr. Faber is the national debt and its interest rates which will potentially go up in the next 5 years. Also on Marc Faber concerns are credit bubbles in China and Dubai along with rising stock prices in certain emerging markets.

“Money printing doesn’t create wealth”

If what Marc Faber says comes true, we are in for one big bumpy ride. Just when everyone thought the coast was clear, we find out that the current Dubai credit crisis might be the tip of the iceberg. Below is the latest Marc Faber interview with Bloomber which took place on December 1,2009. As the Dubai crisis occurred over the weekend, it was only a matter of time before the Dr.Doom’s of the world will get their chance to analyze the situation.
