Jim Rogers....Opportunities all over, but this is the Asian Century

Jim Roger clearly believe that debtor nations will NOT be the way to attract future profits. He suggests that no one flocks to debtors. (good point)

This is a general question and answer session that describes his focus on China.

Trump is ALWAYS Bullish on Vegas!

BRIC Counrties go SHOPPING!

So would these currencies end up in the basket of currencies?

One video, lots of inflation talk from two of my Dr. Dooms!

Two Doctor Doom's for the price of one video.

So it seems that we might have high inflation....so they say, and I have heard Jim Rogers say too. Now what do we do...I mean you and me, regular people....regular investors?

Rogers suggests commodities as the place to invest. I have heard Faber say similar things too.

Things to ponder.

"Head fake recovery"? Are we tryng to pump-up the volume to pump up a bubble?

This is a good video....a nice discussion with Jim Rogers one of my Dr. Doom I follow...but the other guest, Jerry Lowe, makes perhaps the best points!

Check out the 4:52 minute mark for his "Head Fake Recovery" comment.

Marc Faber speaks on current and future trends

FROM YOUTUBE: Dr. Marc Faber brings us up to speed on markets, and takes a look at the months ahead. With HoweStreet.com's Tom Jeffries.



Wow...Faber was no Bush fan, but it seems he isn't any bigger fan of Obama either!
Check out his strong negative assessment at the end of this next video.

Jim Rogers is getting worried about the Dollar.....

Jim Rogers Tallks about The Ugly Future

Sunday, March 29, 2009

Roubini makes a nice summary of out path to the present issues in our economy....

Noriel Roubini outlines a very straight forward description of the events leading up to our present situation. He notes that the regulators have solved the excesses of one bubble by creating yet another. "Serial bubble makers".

According to Roubini, if the economy is a party, the fed is the controller of the punch bowl.....and when the fed saw the partiers getting a little to drunk and going into an unsustainable bubble position, they should have taken away the punch bowl....but they instead added volka and whisky...causing us to "fix" that bubble with yet another and larger one somewhere else.

He thinks we might be out of places to build bubbles, and it might be time to address the problem.

Another Jim Rogers Interview.....broken record, yes....but still an interesting perspective ....

More from Jim Rogers.....he believes in markets and letting markets pick the winners and losers.......not bad, if you are on the non-losing side I suppose!





Jim Rogers doesn't sound like Noriel Roubini....more like Peter Schiff.

It sounds like a "let them fail" vs "Pump them up" when Roubini talk about Nationalizing the banks. (though both agree that Zombie banks are a very bad thing!)

What do you think?

I'm worried that people who have been savers will be the "suppliers" of the money needed for the bail-outs. It doesn't seem to fair to make those who have been responsible to pay fop those who maxed out their credit cards. (or used their house as a giant ATM over the years)

I suppose I am sporting more of a Peter Schiff / Jim Rogers mindset.

Interesting Interview: HANNITY SPEECHS WITH TRUMP ABOUT THE OBAMA ECONOMY (warning, conservative points of view here! :-)

I am not sure what I think of Trump as he is such a multi-faceted guy....good at business, but perhaps a better showman....so I am not always sure when the business ends and the Marketing guy begins....but he makes some good points and have interesting insight.
