Jim Rogers - May 20, 2009 Where do you put your money?

From CNBC:

The stock market may hit new lows this year or the next as the
current rally has been largely caused by the money printed by
central banks and fundamental problems remain unsolved,
legendary investor Jim Rogers told CNBC Wednesday.

His views echo those of renowned bear Marc Faber, who told CNBC
last week that the rises in share prices did not mean the world
was embarking on a path of sustainable economic growth.

"I'm not buying shares if that's what you mean. Not at all,"
Rogers told "Squawk Box Asia."

"The bottom will probably come later this year, next year, who
knows when," he added.

Our economy has non-reversible flaws. Naturally,
the hucksters think McDonald's,Wal-Mart, etc.,
will restore our position in the world market.

ted

ps. Social conflicts will rise due to third-world
immigration and economic disaster.

It's true the economy is a mess but they're "fixing" it by pumping
trillions of $ into it and that will probably cause
hyperinflation.

Nope, you watch. WW2 didnt, and this wont either.

And that means the stock market will RISE a little as the economy
sinks a lot.

Pure pig ignorant fantasy.

I don't think we'll see 2000 DOW even if we have unemployment at
30%..

We may see a DOW at 50,000. But that will be caused by
hyperinflation.

Nope, because we wont see hyperinflation.

At the rate the government is spending and seeing no plans to slow
down spending,

That last is a lie.

hyperinflation is a very real possibility.

Nope, MUCH higher spending in WW2 didnt produce hyperinflation and
there is a reason why it didnt.

WW2 took 2 million people out of the work force,

That should have made hyperinflation much worse.

and the money went to manufacturing. This spending if any goes for manufacturing is being sent to China.

Irrelevant to what produces hyperinflation.

Most of the "Stimulus" spending is pork projects.

Thats a lie, and irrelevant to what produces hyperinflation.

SF Muni bus service getting maintenance money, etc.

It goes into a hell of a lot more than just stuff like that, and irrelevant to what produces hyperinflation anyway.

That aint what produced the only modern example of real hyperinflation, Zimbabwe.
