Maggie said on Sep 8, “The Swiss are liars and cheaters so don’t trust them any further than you can throw Congress.”

Whatever. I suppose you meant something. Any specific bee up your bonnet?

The problem with Rogers is he espouses arcane theory with myriad historical references, which are certainly educational and true. But he never really provides anything concrete, other than “buy China” of other sweeping generality about commodities, as if all commodities move in lockstep. Gold? Oil? Moving in opposite directions. China? Some stocks are gaining 100% while some lose 90%. He can basically claim to be right under any circumstance with this and other interviews.

Rodger predictions are coming faster then expected. So what would had happened if Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac went BK? I bet the other financial companies would know there is no govt. bailout and would simply raise interest rates and/or merge. But now there’s a bailout plan with 700 billion up for grabs and now the financial institutions must “appear” to fail to get that cash.

Rogers did not sell his Chinese stocks? Their market is down 80% since the October 2007 high.

That makes no sense to me..

We bail-out the failed at the expense of those who have not failed. The failed then graduate from failures to parasites.

20 years ago Russia failed. You all know the rest.
Write in; “Putin’s Overcoat” on the ballot this year.

To Tom the Buffett Fan -

Look at what Warren is doing now. He has one of his Bank Surety BH companies no longer insuring deposits (look up Kansas Bankers Surety Co.) above the amount guaranteed by the FDIC. Eleven banks have failed in 2008; seven of them since July 11. Maybe Mr. Buffett would agree with Rogers more today than ever.

Jim Rogers commands respect because of his track record. Commenters who disparage him are voicing their own ignorance.
