China will control lot of markets in future

China will become the largest economy in the world in the foreseeable future. It will become the most important country in the world in the foreseeable future. When that happens, they’re going to control the price of a lot of stuff, directly or indirectly. I don’t see them controlling the price of gold anytime soon, as big as they are and as important as they are, there’s just too much gold around the world for them to control it yet. But my children speak Mandarin. 

I moved to Asia so that my children would know Asia, and speak perfect Mandarin. China’s the future, whether we like it or not.

North Korea excites Jim Rogers


I'm very excited about North Korea. If I could put all of my money into North Korea, I would. Massive changes are taking place there. I would not have invested in Kim Jong Un's father or grandfather by any stretch of the imagination, but that's like saying that in 1980 you shouldn't invest in China because of Mao Zedong.

Mao was dead and Deng Xiaoping was making huge changes. They are making huge changes in North Korea. The kid is making astonishing changes.

US Dollar bubble - Jim Rogers

I own a lot of dollars and have done for the last couple of years, but it has gone straight up. Anything that goes straight up you have to start worrying about. It's my largest currency position, at the moment, but I emphasize at the moment.

People perceive the dollar as a safe haven. It's astonishing that the biggest debtor nation in history is going to have a bubble in its currency.

China stock market still much below their historic highs

I'm buying markets that are depressed. China's stock market is now about 40 percent below their historic records, Japan's stock market - 50 percent. I'm still very bullish. I'm still buying more China stocks as we speak. We are supposed to buy when things are difficult.

Right now for a variety of reasons the Chinese are trying to encourage their capital markets, the population is pouring into the market, so is the rest of the world and so am I.

Jim Rogers may sell India stocks if there arent changes

I had bought shares in India—it was one of the few times I’ve done that in my life, and it was because of the new government. So far, the new government has done nothing but talk, and it is a shame because Modi had experience; he said he knew what needs to be done. He campaigned for many months saying he knows how to fix India, but he has done very little. Cleaning toilets is wonderful, but as far as building the economy or changing India goes, he has not done very much. I still own Indian shares, and I wonder if I should continue holding, because, after a year of no action, you begin to wonder if anything is going to happen. One might say he is getting ready to act, but Modi had run a provincial government for a long time and he knows what to do. So what is all this talk about? I am getting disillusioned about India, but I’ve not acted yet.

But Modi has a very large majority, he has experience, he has the contacts, and if anybody could do something, it has to be him. If he can’t do it, then I don’t want to remain invested in India. If he can’t save India, no one else can. So I would want to sell.

India should make foreign investment more friendly

Open the market to all investors, eliminate exchange controls, dismantle protectionism and remove subsidies. These would make big differences in India.

I do not believe foreign investors have significant issues about setting up new subsidiaries in India. It is fairly inexpensive to have lawyers organize a new company, obtain necessary approvals, tax-related registrations, appoint directors, open bank accounts.
