If you're not careful, Jamie Dimon will send your physical gold to Hugo Chavez...
Last week on CNBC the following classic exchange occured:
Faber: "I prefer if investors hold physical gold in a safe deposit box, ideally outside the US, in various locations - Switzerland, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Canada. I think it’s important in today’s very uncertain world to diversify, not only the various asset classes, but also the custody of your assets should be in different jurisdictions."
CNBC: "Uh, so do you thus not trust US banks or US custodians? Do you think they might fail or abscond with the gold?"
Laughter and smirking from CNBC.
Faber: "I don’t trust anyone."
Uncomfortable silence.
CNBC: "Hmmm. Interesting."
