- He sees a correction in the near-term, but a possible rally in the second half of the year. Though he doesn't see the rally hitting new highs.

- And in terms of currency, he thinks it's silly to think that a weak US dollar will save our export sector. If that's all it took, he argues, Zimbabwe and Latin America in the 80s would have been export and manufacturing powerhouses.

I love the way the American media insists on casting economic forecasters like Faber, Schiff, Taleb and Roubini all as "Drs Doom" simply because the have the foresight & clarity to accurately predict what's coming down the pipeline ..along with the cojones to bravely call things by their REAL name.
Just imagine when this stupid tendency to gang-up on negative-news-purveyors goes mainstream ! Air traffic controllers will be called "pessimists" for asking pilots to "change course NOW in order to avoid a head-on collision!". Dentists will be labeled "Black Swans" for telling us that that rotten tooth has GOT to go or otherwise we risk a massive infection. Plumbers will be branded as "Naysayers" for telling us that the backed-up toilet needs to get unclogged or we risk an explosion of excrement all over the bathroom floor.
