Bullish on Agriculture

Jim Rogers has recently shared his thoughts on the agriculture sector and explain why he is so bullish on agricultural commodities:

"No one wants to be a farmer anymore, as compared to the past, when farmers were like masters of the universe for a long period of time."

"The agriculture sector has been a disaster for 35 years. Things are so bad. The average age of an American farmer is 58, the average age in Japan is 68. And do you know that the highest suicide rate in the UK is in the agricultural sector?"

Bitcoin: The Risks of a Government Crackdown

Internet is gonna change everything we know. How it's going to evolve, I don't know. I do know that governments do not like to lose control, governments want to control everything.

The crypto people say,  "yes but we're smarter than the government" and they are, everybody's smarter than the government but the government has more guns than everybody else. So if the government wants to control money they will.

Cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Internet & Money

Jim Rogers shares his views on money, cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin.

The Bullish Case For The US Dollar

In the past when America has given tax incentives to bring US Dollars home it has made the US Dollar go higher, certainly for a while. These tax laws have just changed and there are now incentives to bring US Dollars home. I suspect they people will bring the US Dollars home and I suspect the US Dollar will go higher especially as interest rates go higher.

Currencies: I'll Probably Buy More US Dollars

I own a lot of US Dollars. What happened last year in my view is a normal correction. You know, the US Dollar was extremely strong a while before that, made new highs, multi-year highs, so it's having a normal correction. I own the US Dollar and I will probably buy more.
