The worst bear market
In an interview with Kitco News published last week, celebrity investor Jim Rogers warned of an upcoming bear market that will be the "worst" of his life. Rogers is a former business partner of George Soros, who co-founded Quantum Fund and Soros Fund Management.
Another bear market is coming… The next one will be the worst of my life.
Explaining that in 2008 "we had a problem with too much debt," he pointed out that the debt has skyrocketed since then.
„Dluh všude raketově narostl, takže příští medvědí trh musí být hrozný,“ prohlásil. „Chci říct, že USA od roku 2009 několikrát navýšily svůj dluh. Podívejte se na Japonsko, v Japonsku nedokážou dluh ani spočítat. V mnoha zemích světa je dluh stále vyšší a vyšší a vyšší…Krize v roke 2008 nastala kvůli příliš velkému dluhu, nyní je to mnohem horší.“
Rogers elaborated:
Many stocks will go down 70 %, 80 %, 90 %. Of course it will happen. I just don't know when.
Dále popsal: „Máme velmi vysoké ocenění, máme vysoké dluhy, přichází spousta nových investorů. Není to moje první rodeo. Všichni přijdou o spoustu peněz. Doufám, že nejsem jedním z nich.“
The US dollar is losing its dominance
Rogers also reiterated his view that the US dollar will lose its dominance, stating that "the Russo-Ukrainian war accelerated that."
The world's international medium of exchange is supposed to be neutral - anyone can do whatever they want with it. But Washington is unfortunately changing those rules. Washington says if they don't like you, you can't use the US dollar, and people say, Wait a minute, the international medium of exchange is supposed to be neutral. That's not the way it's supposed to work.'
„Mnohým lidem byl zabaven jejich majetek, protože se jim znelíbili,“ zdůraznil Rogers a upřesnil:
Many countries, even our allies, are now looking for something to compete with the US dollar because it could happen to them, you know, all of a sudden Washington could say you're done.
Rogers also commented on Bitcoin and confirmed that he did not buy any BTC. He reiterated his opinion that if cryptocurrency succeeds as a currency, governments will outlaw it because they don't like competition.
