@@flashfuture27You're correct. China's central command had destroyed and suppressed the economy for a hundred years, but then they reduced their central command control, at first when they allowed "special economic zones", which were free of many government prohibitions and regulations. This is what Jim saw all those years ago.

Remember he moved there, tried to learn language. Obviously smart man who was also fooled by the CCP.
Boy, Jim has changed his tune a bit after moving to the far east a decade ago, having his kids learn Chinese, thought it was all the future Jim.?
Didnt Jim used to think that China was going to take over as the the strongest economy in the world? Just wondering if he changed his mind on that?

Good interview
It is not a bubble that is the problem, it stills has a property bubble, an asset bubble overall, but it has an economic model problem.
Markets are by & large a popularity contest.
Should silver behave like gold or copper during a recession?
Japan's economy hasn't been contracting because of financial management only, Japan has been able to counteract the effects of a declining population by being one of the world's leaders in advanced automation and technology. Japan remains hughly productive as the global #4(dropping one spot to India only this past month) econy as measured by GDP.

Why? We don't have industries operating at 30% capacity and a bunch of wasting assets. We don't have empty housing fully price controlled at highest value that is empty and able to house 1.4 to 3 billion people while having the fastest collapsing demography in world. We don't rely on exports to employ our people. We aren't a developing country whose debt profile is as high as an advanced country. We don't have a GDP that doesn't write off bad investments, but collateralized them, increases bad assets by rolling over unpaid interest into next year's loans and have a banking sector whose assets are so bloated. If China wrote off bad investments its economy would shrink 40 to 60% and its assets would disappear. The thing is, you people have told yourselves the wrong story for so long.

Jim seems very down these days. He must have lost a shit ton of money from chinas market crash. He really loves china as he made alot of money on the way up. However china never gives up anything of value. Never invest in china unless you're prepared to loose everything you've invested.

Despite negative comments I see posted, IMO Jim Rogers'discussion appears to be fair. He touches on the umportance of timing investments, the state of the Dollar, economic bubbles and a lot more based on his life experience. Everything can be debatable and open fo discussion but aren't particularly radical.
So, gold & silver bottom before the other markets do?

Jim Rogers put his own $ into his investments, unlike GIC/TH. JR has been successful. In contrast SGP's govt has to make up its humongous losses by increasing GST & a host of other charges. PSA, a 100% TH sub tried to sell off its stake in PRC ports which PSA Int. bought in 2005/2006 amounting to US$5.5 BILLION, without success for several months recently. Speaks volumes about the incompetence of LHL/HC management of our reserves........meanwhile US & Japanese stock mkts hit record highs........BUT PRC;s indices suffered huge losses.
Is the current environment of 'easing while tightening' or fiscal stimulus with restrictive fed rates a new thing? It would seem to explain the above expectation growth numbers and delayed recession. Someone posited that it has been the illegal immigrants who are boosting our economy above expectations; I like that one. If the Fed and Treasury are in the process of inflating us out of our fiscal deficit, what would that look like in terms of magnitude, meaning how long and what levels of inflation would be necessary to accomplish this.
Why you worry China, you should worry your own country instead, 34T debts, day in day out piling up with no signs of stagnation.

I can only presume it's a form of MMT which would present the nation's economy as a balance sheet with the private sector (the people) on one side, and the government (owned by the people) on the other side. Entire books have been written on this. I'm not really qualified to explain it.
Could this be a hyoe to scare investors to leave so others can take over? It's been dine before.

If someone like Rogers, a Chinese economic apologist, is worried... things must be serious
Rogers and co. always talk up their own book.
Any idea excessive liquidity is driving rhe USA econimy rise is tupid and uninformed. The Fed announced over 6 minths ago it had sucked out all the liquidity unjected into the economy due to Pandemic aid. Current performance is entirely the strength of the US and not due to any manipulation or trickery. There is some concern about the debt payments that will become due related to the increase un the National Debt but for know is considered manageable as ling as the current demand for US sovereign debt remains high and hopefully interest rates will decreae soon. But conditions would have to radically change for the current US financial strategy to change significantly.
These questions are terrible.
He’s definitely not excited at really answering questions in this interview…
Seems like the host has no idea how to ask great questions in front of one old legend of Wall Street.😅

It's easy to succeed when you have the entire US manufacturing sector literally boxed up and shipped to China for free to employ their massive cheap labor force. Then, give them free shipping and tariff free open access to the US. Now that this gravy train has run dry, seems like they're trying to find people to sell stuff to.

Bad business plan to threaten your biggest trading partner.
That’s what I’ve been saying. The tech market is a bubble. For example, Apple makes around 90 billion every year (net). But it’s worth 2.67 trillion. Meaning it would take close to 30 years to actually make its valuation. But then we have Saudi aramco worth about 2.017 trillion, but makes over 350 billion every year. Meaning it would take around 5 years to make back the valuation. I personally feel like the tech market is hyped especially in the US, it makes too little for its valuation. It’s a bubble. (Although most people just take loans against their stocks. Which they have to pay back). My point is, it’s a bubble.
I've got out NOTHING from the vid.

Rogers looks grumpy here. Not sure why he is on this podcast. It appears he is no longer a China bull, and has shorted some stocks in both US and China. Uzbekistan is not for us mortals. I invest in China only if there are ADRs available. There is no such thing for us in Uzbekistan.
