Faber: Allocate 25% to ‘Physical Precious Metals’
As Mineweb‘s Lawrence Williams looks at the “puzzling” but “understandable” price patterns in gold, which he sees as increasingly resilient in the face of poor current fundamentals, Marc Faber, in a lengthy interview with Hard Assets Investor, says that he’s “telling every investor, in the long run, that central banks all over the world are going to print money because they know nothing else. The purchasing power of currencies will continue to go down. In other words, the price of gold and silver will move up in the long run.”
And asked what kind of portfolio allocation he would recommend for investors, Faber’s formula is “25 percent in equities, 25 percent in physical precious metals, 25 percent in Asian properties and 25 percent in corporate bonds, mostly emerging economies.”
And asked what kind of portfolio allocation he would recommend for investors, Faber’s formula is “25 percent in equities, 25 percent in physical precious metals, 25 percent in Asian properties and 25 percent in corporate bonds, mostly emerging economies.”

I suppose they can't say anything less because at the end of the day they need a good portion of yours and my funds to continue in their line of work. If everyone went 100% silver/gold, things would come to halt right quick.

Depending upon the purpose of your investment, most are for retirement, AND the economic climate:
30% precious metals - it doesn't have to be physical, pool allocated is good enough. 60% in gold, 30% in silver you can you what you want with the other 10% ie platinum or gold or silver. Of your gold holdings - half to be stored in a foreign country of good repute that also makes chocolate and good tennis players.
25% in cash although this is becoming less desirable as the % rate declines.
25% in property (why they would choose Asia is beyond me as you are not allowed to freehold in Asia).
10% bonds (Not treasury)
10% collectibles (numis or artwork) - but not jewellery.
