Tagged: Renowned investor Jim Rogers thinks it's laughable that some analysts are suggesting the bull market in commodities may be over,but it's nothing he hasn't heard before in his nearly 40 years in the business.
"People have been telling me for seven years that the bull market in commodities is over, practically every time we have a correction, and I suspect they'll be saying it for at least another seven years. The bull market is not over yet - it's had a big correction but it's not over yet,"

Tagged: Jim Rogers, who in April 2006 correctly predicted oil would reach $100 a barrel and gold $1,000 an ounce, told investors not to ``give up'' on Chinese shares after the country's stock index fell almost 50 percent this year.
'Start buying when others say `never again', Rogers, 65, said today at an investor conference in Nanjing. There is ``much money to be made'' from investments in Chinese stocks, he said.

Tagged: Jim Rogers has a severe case of wanderlust. The longtime investor and author, whose books include Investment Biker and Adventure Capitalist, also has a new address: Singapore. Rogers recently moved his family to the island state from New York because he wants his young daughters to learn to speak fluent Chinese, which will be crucial in this century, he says.
In a recent conversation with Barron's, Rogers had no shortage of strong opinions on topics ranging from regulation of the financial markets to China's future.

Tagged: You might expect Jim Rogers to be gloating a little bit. After all, the famed investor has been predicting a recession in the U.S. economy for months and shorting the shares of now-tanking Wall Street investment banks for even longer. And with fears of a recession sparking both a worldwide market sell-off and emergency action from Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke, Rogers again looks prescient - just as he has over the past few years as the China-driven commodities boom he predicted almost a decade ago began kicked into high gear.

Tagged: Jim Rogers, co-founder of the Quantum Hedge Fund with billionaire George Soros, boosted his bets against U.S. securities firms because of their salary 'excesses' and money-losing investments.
Rogers said he increased his year-old short positions in the past six weeks in U.S. investment banks, using exchange-traded funds and bets against individual companies he declined to name. Stocks in the industry, which pays too much in bonuses, may fall as much as 70 percent in a bear market, he said.

"I'm in the process of -- I hope in the next few months -- getting all of my assets out of U.S. dollars,'' said Rogers, 65, who correctly predicted the commodities rally in 1999. "I'm that pessimistic about what's happening in the U.S."

Tagged: Commodities investment guru Jim Rogers stepped into the U.S. subprime fray on Wednesday, predicting a real estate crash that would trigger defaults and spread contagion to emerging markets. "You can't believe how bad it's going to get before it gets any better," the prominent U.S. fund manager told Reuters.
"It's going to be a disaster for many people who don't have a clue about what happens when a real estate bubble pops. "It is going to be a huge mess," said Rogers, who has put his $15 million belle epoque mansion on Manhattan's Upper West Side on the market and is planning to move to Asia.

Oil will resume its march toward $100 a barrel after a 'correction,' said Jim Rogers, who predicted the start of the commodities rally in 1999.
'I'm just not smart enough to know how far down it will go and how long it will stay, but I do know that within the context of the bull market, oil will go over $100,'' Rogers said in a Tokyo interview. 'It will go over $150. Whether that is in 2009 or 2013, I don't have a clue, but I know it's going to happen.'

Jim Rogers has come a long way from the poor boy from Alabama, but he is still determined to remain at the heart of things. Jim Rogers, unimpressed with the US, says China will be the great country of the 21st Century. George Soros's former investment partner packs a deal of self-confidence into his diminutive frame. And so he might. Not only did Jim Rogers make enough money to retire at the tender age of 37, he's had the imagination to do something interesting with his money in the 26 years since he gave up the day job.
No one puts the case for an extended bull market in raw materials better than the man who cleaned up in the 1970s natural resources boom and fully intends to do so again.
Rogers' case for commodities is simple. 'In all the commodity bull markets I've studied, the shortest lasted 15 years and the longest 23 years,' he says in the practised tones of a man who can afford to make the same point over and over until the rest of the world catches up.

You'd have to twist commodities high priest Jim Rogers' arm pretty hard to persuade him to bet heavily on precious metals in 2007, even though he doesn't particularly dislike their prospects.
"If I had to buy a metal, I'd buy silver, palladium, gold, I guess in that order," the creator of the Rogers international commodities index -- and its constituent energy, metals and agricultural indexes -- said recently when reached in New York. "But I don't have to buy any of them, so I'm not."
Instead, Mr. Rogers, who first gained fame as a partner of investing legend George Soros, is continuing to thump the tub for agriculture, which has accounted for about 35 per cent of the index since he launched it in 1998. "I expect that to be the place to be," he said.
