“Faber noted weakness in such sectors as home builders, retailers, airlines and food companies. That made the precious metal a strong play, he added. ‘First of all, I have a preference for physical gold, held in a safe deposit box outside the United States, and preferably in Asia, for a variety of reasons,’ he said. Faber chided gold bears for missing the precious metal’s 1999-to-2011 bull run. Faber also said that he had recently bought stock in Newport Mining, Freeport-McMoRan and Barrick. As a member of their boards, Faber also owned equity in Ivanplats, NovaGold and Turquoise Hill, he added.”
