I am not buying stocks, I am looking at agriculture products, sugar, I have some orders in to buy Sugar Futures again. Sugar has been bottoming here for 2 or 3 years and I suspect sugar will be great in the next 2 or 3 years. I am looking at agriculture products, not agriculture stocks. If I come across a good agriculture stock, of course I will buy it.

Markets: "It is going to be worse than 2008"
It is going to be worse than 2008, you are going to see bankruptcies, the debt is much higher all over the world now than it was 8 years ago. Even China now has a lot of debt which did not have in 2008. I am afraid we are going to see a lot of problems, everybody`s debt is going through the roof, money has been printed, be worried.

Since When Is Inflation Good For The World?
Since when is inflation good for the world? I have read lots of history books and economic history books and I have never heard except in the last decade people advocating inflation. Inflation is usually something that people tend to stay way from and if you want to use the Japanese example, the Japanese stock market today is down 60 percent from its all time highs, 26 years ago. If you want to use Japan as an example I am afraid we got a long, long period of problems ahead of us.

The Federal Reserve Will Try To Come To Our Rescue Again
I am worried about the gigantic debt in the U.S. as a start, and second I am certainly worried about the Federal Reserve because because what more can they do? What will probably happen is we will start having problems again wether this month, in the spring or in the summer, the Federal Reserve will panic, they will try to come to our rescue again, they will print more money, they will lower interest rates if they can. The Federal Reserve is not out of it yet. The Federal Reserve is the one making this problem and making this worse and worse and worse. Capital is being misallocated.

Investing: "I Am Not Short U.S. Treasuries"
I am not short U.S. Treasuries, I am short U.S. stocks, I am short U.S. junk bonds. The spreads between Treasuries and junk bonds got to be very, very narrow. So I am short junk bonds but not Treasuries.
Interest rates will be going higher in the U.S. little question of that, wether the Federal Reserve takes them up or the market takes them up. We have had this artificial level of interest rates for a decade now and this has to change.

Markets: Long China, Long U.S. Dollars & Short U.S. Stocks
At the moment I am short the United States and long China, as far as the stock market is concerned. I do own a lot of U.S. Dollars, many more U.S. Dollars than any other currency. I prefer to be long China and short the U.S. than the other way around. That does not mean that there will not be problems in China. China trades with everybody in the world and if everybody in the world has problems and they are starting to have problems, such as Japan, Korea, some of the other countries, China will too.

Bankruptcies in China Will Scare A Lot Of People
There is no question that there is now debt in China. In 2008 whn the world had a problem, China could help bail us out because they had gigantic money saved for a rainy day and they spent some of that money. America spent a lot of money but we did not have any money saved up, we just printed it and borrowed it. Yes, there is a difference in the world between 2016 and 2008, is that China does have debt now but nothing like America, Britain or Portugal or some other countries in the world.
You are going to have bankrupcies in China, at least I hope we are going to have bankruptcies in Chin, I hope that the Government lets them go bankrupt and that is going to scare a lot of people and de disruptive.

Global Markets: "I Am Worried About The World"
I am worried about the world in 2016 and in 2017. You have to remember, Japan which is the third largest economy in the world is in recession, officially in a recession, and many parts of Europe as you well know, there is a disaster going on in Europe.
The world economy is suffering in a lot of places and for people to blame all this on China... China is a victim more than a cause going forward. The real cause of course is the American central bank and the American government running up debt but China is a victim like everybody else.

Markets: Better To Watch Than To Own
I love India, it is a wonderful place to visit as I have said many times, I love Indians but I do not own stocks everywhere, I do not own stocks in Japan, I do not own stocks in Germany, there are a lot of countries where I do not own stocks that even have better fundamentals than India. But my view is, this is a time to be watching rather than owning.

Markets: "I Am Short These Stocks"
The greed is in the American markets that I have talked about before. Amazon (AMZN), Netflix (NFLX), those stocks never go down, those stocks are selling at staggering highs. In fact last year nearly all stocks in America were down but the average is only down 3 or 4 percent and that is because these 5 or 6 large companies never went down. So that is clearly greed, I am short those stocks but that does not mean that I am going to be right. I am short these stocks and there is where I see the most greed in the world.

Some parts of the Chinese economy are going to do well no matter what happens to the world. If you are in pollution clean up in China you will not even know if America and Europe disappear as you are too busy cleaning up China. China is philty right now.

In A Serious Panic, Crude Oil May Hit 20 Dollars
As you know, normally when prices go up, they go up too high and turns into bubbles and hysteria and when they go down, panic and fear sets in and markets overreact to the downside.
It looks to me that we are going to have an overreaction in many markets on the downside. How low can Crude Oil go? I think I have said 32 dollars a barrel last time. But who knows? If the kind of panic that we see now sets in, you pick the bottom. I do not know. I am not smart enough. People talk about 20 dollars a barrel. Why not in a serious panic? That is not my prediction but it is what some people are saying and in a serious panic everything overshoots on the downside.

Markets: Everything Is Going To Get Smashed
It seems to be that now we are in a period where everything is going to get smashed. I have been around long enough to know that periodically we have everything going down, it does not matter if it is good or bad, everyone just throws everything out of the window because they are in a panic. It seems to me that we are in that kind of period now. These periods are not fun, many people get hurt, including me.

Markets: My Shorts Positions Are Bigger Than My Longs
China is overdue for a serious correction in the markets. China has not had a recession for many years and that is very unusual. I own China but I have shorted other things as hedges against it. And by the way, my shorts are bigger than my longs, so its not a 1 for 1 kind of thing.

Markets: The Problems Are Now Hitting Us And Its Going To Get worse
The American stock market has been worse than the Chinese stock market. The Chinese stock market in 2015 was one of the best stock markets in the world. The American stock market was down last year. So it started in America and in Europe and China is catching up and its catching up in a big, big way.
My basic point is we have had a lot of excesses in the last 7 years, we have not had any major decline in the American stock market, we had staggering amounts of money printed, huge amounts of debt built up and we are now paying the price. Do not blame it on China. If you want to blame it on someone, blame it on the Federal Reserve. The problems are now hitting us and it is going to get worse.

China Is My Largest Long Position
China is my largest long position. My largest positions are airlines and tourism in China and the collapse in the price of oil has been good for airlines all over the world. Tourism is booming in Asia, pollution control. I have been in Beijing 3 times in the last month and it is filthy, it is horrible! Somebody is going to make a lot of money cleaning up China.

Why I Started Investing In Russia
Exchange traded funds that trade in New York, Market Vector Russia ETF Trust (RSX), is the one that pops to mind. I actually own more shares than I do exchange traded funds but yes, it is a great way to play Russia.
One reason I invested in Russia, I have been bearish for 47 years, been negative on Putin for 15 years. But Russia has changed dramatically in the last 2 or 3 years and that is way I started investing in Russia.
Putin understands capitalism, that he can`t just take money away from people, that he can`t just put them in jail, that he has to play by the rules. And the Russians are starting to play by the rules in the financial markets.
