Jim Rogers : I see shortages of commodities and natural resources coming

Jim Rogers : “Right now, the U.S. and Europe are the largest economies in the world. If and when the U.S. and Europe have problems, everyone is going to have problems, it doesn't matter if you’re a creditor and doing everything right or not, you’re going to have problems and so are they. But they are trying to re-orient. Asian countries are going around the world buying up plantations, buying up oil fields, buying up natural resources. I see shortages of commodities and natural resources coming and apparently they do too. China is making their currency more international so they can stop using the U.S. dollar when they’re ready to. Japan does most of its trade with Asia now [instead of the U.S.].”
