Jim Rogers : Gold will bottom 2014

There are huge shorts that have developed in precious metals as you know. So they are overdue for a rally. We have had a big drop in 2013 and everybody got negative and everybody got short. So we are going to have a rally, though not too much of the rally. I am not going to either buy or sell that rally, but there will certainly be a rally.

Later in the year, things will go down again and hopefully finally, we will make a nice bottom and we can buy gold again. I would prefer silver to gold. I am not buying either at the moment. Silver is down 60% from its all-time high and gold is down 30% or 35% from its all-time high. However, I am not going to buy either at the moment.

You Should Sell Your Bonds

The peak in bonds was in 2012 and they have been going down since. I am negative on bonds going forward. Bonds were in a bull market from 1981 to 2012. That is 31 years of a bull market. Bonds have been coming down for 18 months. In my view, yields got so low, so very low that they had to go higher. Wether they have to go higher this week, this month or this year, I do not know. If you own bonds you should sell them.

The Fed Will Get Scared

"Remember the people in Fed are just bureaucrats and academicians, they do not know much about the real financial world. When markets start falling on tapering, the Fed will get scared and start printing more money. All this is bad for the global economy, as printing of money has never worked in the long term." - in Economic Times
