Jim Rogers Warns : Bonds are going to cause a lot of pain to a lot of people





Me: So when we look at global markets, which markets… [are those] that a lot of investors are very keen on [and may be in bubble territory]?


Jim Rogers: Well, I can’t think of many that people are keen on right now. America… the S&P, people are keen on… European football clubs… that’s a bubble.
American tertiary education is a bubble. Everybody thinks it’s the end all and be all. America has done a great PR job of selling its universities. Everybody knows [that] grammar school, primary school and high school are a disaster in America. But somehow or another that translates into the fact that America has great universities. Don’t ask me the logic. But that’s obviously a bubble.
Hong-Kong real estate, Shanghai real estate… [those] are clearly in some kind of bubble… also, Sydney real estate.
Bonds are obviously something that is going to cause a lot of pain to a lot of people. Bonds have been going up for 35 years. Literally, for 35 years. Now, bond markets have a habit of having long, long, long cycles, 30, 35 years. It’s normal in the bond market. At least historically in the U.S. it’s been normal, but… that’s another clear bubble.
