There Are Some Short-Term Factors Hurting Gold

"It’s gone up 12 years in a row. I don’t know of any asset that goes up 12 years in a row. So just from a technical point of view, maybe it needs to go down some more. But from a fundamental point of view it will be a buy. There are some short-term factors hurting gold. The Indians are trying to restrict the purchase of gold, as it’s the source (along with oil) of their trade deficit. I have not sold my gold and plan to buy more if it keeps dropping. And yes, I did call for a correction a while back, and sometimes I do get it right!" - in Business Insider

At Some Point, Interest Rates Will Go Up Regardless

“But at some point, markets won’t take central bank policies anymore, and interest rates go up regardless of how much bond buying they do. Market timing is tough. As for the fixed income market, I’m short junk bonds. In any market, the marginal stuff goes first. This could precede problems with sovereign debt.” - in CBS MarketWatch Blog

QE is going to end

Quantitative easing is going to end. Either the central bankers are going to wake up to reality and stop this insanity of printing money all over the world or the market is going to say 'we don’t want your paper money' anymore.

I Don't Want to Own Equities Right Now

"I do not really want to own equities right now. I owned a fair amount of Japanese equities. I sold most of them two weeks ago. I am not very optimistic about equities because you see what happened in Japan when people started getting worried about the end of the artificiality. When everybody realises that all the central banks are going to have to cut back, it is not going to be fun. The Japanese stock market has collapsed in three days. You just wait and the whole world has to face its problem." - Jim Rogers via a recent Economic Times interview:

Jim Rogers : You Have to Find Your Own Way

Jim Rogers : "Everybody’s got to find their own way. Listening to me, maybe it’s fun, maybe it’s boring, who knows, you’re not going to succeed until you find your own way. I mean if you’re a musician you’ve got to find your own sound, your own way. Great musicians through history were the people who had their own madness, and were proud of their madness, especially if it was not what everybody else is doing. Well, the same is true of art, literature, politics, finance...especially finance. Yeah, you can copy other people, and many people do, that’s why everybody invests in the same thing, and that’s why it winds up being a bad investment. No, you’ve got to figure out your own way, no matter how absurd your way may sound, especially if your own way sounds absurd to others, you should pursue it even harder. You can learn from other people, but don’t try to be like Joe or Sally, try to be like yourself." - Source, Investors Guide:
