Jim Rogers : There is No Bubble In China

Jim Rogers : It was a bubble in urban coastal real estate. But China, for the past three years, has been trying to pop that bubble. And the bubble has popped. You could certainly go down further, but I wouldn’t say there’s a bubble there now. Prices are coming down, transactions are coming down and people are losing money. I don’t know how long China will stay tough. I would hope they’d stay tough much longer, because they’ve got to kill inflation too. But if anybody thinks there’s a bubble in China, they haven’t been doing their homework. The bubble popped. Prices have come down and are continuing to come down. - in Seeking Alpha

It Wont Surprise Me If Gold Goes Down Much Lower

Jim Rogers : What I said was, if gold gets to $1100 or $1200 or $1300, I would hope I’m smart enough to buy more. I don’t know if it’s going to go there or not. I may buy it at $1850 if war breaks out with Iran. It depends on what happens in the world. What I said was that it won’t surprise me if gold goes down much lower; that’s normal for the way markets work. And if it goes there, I hope I’m smart enough to buy more. But if it goes to $1,550, I would probably buy more. Just depends on what happened. - in Seekingalpha

Jim Rogers : The Way To Go Is To Become A Farmer

Jim Rogers : The very best way is to go and become a farmer. Buy farmland and become a farmer, because then you are going to get huge paybacks. If you don’t want to go into the fields, open a chain of restaurants in Midwest (US) or in the outback of Australia, or get a Lamborghini dealership in Oklahoma or in Nebraska because farmers are going to be driving the Lamborghinis; stock brokers are going to be driving tractors. - in Commodity Online

Sugar Is Still Down 70 Percent Since 1974

Jim Rogers : Over the past 38 years sugar — and I’m not suggesting you buy sugar, I’m using this as an indication — is down 70 percent, I believe, from its all-time high. Well, there’s not much that’s down 70 percent in price since 1974, 37-38 years ago. But sugar is one of those things. - in Seeking Alpha
