Commodity markets

Jim Rogers : They are moving at all-time high records. Do I expect gold to crash? No, I don't expect it to crash, although I see it coming down; Crude oil has come down quite a lot. I expect it to rally soon just like everything else. The world is running out of known oil reserves and unless we discover a lot of oil quickly, it will be all about how high it stays and how high it goes. Oil is going to be much higher over the years.

Equity markets

Jim Rogers : We are seeing a collapse; panic selling but that always leads to a rally and we will have a rally. But is it real? I do not think so. The world still has serious problems.

Downgrade of the UK and other European countries

Jim Rogers : The US has been downgraded and countries like the UK that has very high debt will have to be downgraded too. You can't have the UK as triple 'A' and the US as not a triple 'A'. You need to be asking S&P or Moody's why they haven't got around doing that. I don't think, the European countries deserve their rates.

Fundamentals driving gold

Jim Rogers : Governments all over the world are debasing currency; Yesterday, the US Federal Reserve said it will continue to debase their currency. The more the governments will debase paper currency, people will take refuge in real assets and gold is one of them.

Gold price movements

Jim Rogers : Well, I own gold and I see gold breaking new highs and racing up. I don't like to buy things when that is happening; when gold goes down I will buy more gold. Gold is going straight up, it will probably correct somewhere and I hope it will correct somewhere along the line and if it does I will buy more.
