Jim Rogers : I only invest in My commodities Indexes RICI because my lawyer won't let me invest in individual commodities

Jim Rogers : Gold and silver I buy physical as well as other ways , but otherwise for commodities I came up with an Index RICI Rogers International Commodities Index and I invest in that because my lawyer won't let me invest in individual commodities , he says you are too public you speak about them you write about them so I just invest in my indexes , there is one for agriculture , metals , energy and one for all commodities except for silver and gold where I do buy physical as well , so I basically ignore the fluctuations , commodities are in a secular bull market in my view and I have learned in life that you do not short secular bull markets you long in secular bull markets , if you want hedges and I do then you should hedge something where there vulnerable and which is not in a major secular bull market and that's what I am doing I own commodities does not matter what happens to them , I hope my shorts protect me if we have sudden collapses in the world
