Jim Rogers Commodities Index - Preparing for the 20 Year Bull Market

Jim Rogers remains bullish on commodities. He believes that demand will outstrip supply for the next two decades. A high amount of inflation is ahead, and gold and silver have typically done well in those environments.

Anything that a country can do to raise capital for entrepreneurs is good for the country, good for the entrepreneurs and good for the world. In 1998, the Jim Rogers commodities index was created to help investors invest in commodities more easily. He also wrote the book Hot Commodities to help people understand commodities and how and why he created the index.

Jim Rogers Holding No Currencies

Is Jim Rogers holding any currencies? Dollars have been one of the best performing asset classes recently, but this has nothing to do with people going to dollars as a safe haven. Most people are simply liquifying other assets, so they are taking on more dollars. If you are smart, you will use this opportunity to get out of all your dollars.

The United States owes the rest of the world 13 trillion dollars. There will be exchange controls coming. The dollar is the last thing that you should think of as a safe haven. The Euro is less flawed than the dollar, but even it is seriously flawed. If you want to keep your money in a sound currency, your task is very difficult. Even the Swiss Franc is looking suspect. For Jim Rogers holding any of the government currencies is a bad idea.
