Marc Faber, the Swiss investment expert famously known as “Dr. Doom” for his consistently bearish market outlooks, has issued a stark warning to Indian retail investors during a recent NDTV Profit interview. Faber explicitly advised investors to “get out” of equities if markets show any signs of rebounding, suggesting this would be their opportunity to exit before further decline. His gloomy forecast extends beyond India, predicting that bear markets worldwide could persist for “several years” rather than being short-term corrections. Faber also highlighted a particular concern about inflation, warning that it could create a dangerous illusion where investments appear to be generating positive returns in nominal terms, while their real purchasing power and value are actually being eroded. This warning comes at a critical time for Indian investors who have experienced significant market volatility.
