Currently I am long on The US Dollar

Why are you buying US dollars now? Are you betting on the US economic recovery?

Jim Rogers : The US dollar is partially gaining strength because there is turmoil in the markets; people are worried about the Middle East, Russia, and when people are worried, they quickly resort to the US dollar to make payments. The US dollar is not safe haven anymore, but people don't understand that. As long as there is turmoil in the world, the dollar will go higher and higher, and this will hurt many countries and economies. And my plan is when the dollar goes higher and higher, I will sell the dollars. Having said that, currently I am long on dollars. - in ET Now Oct 7, 2014

"Mr Geithner is a smart person from what I understand but he has been wrong about everything for the last 15 years. Why are we listening to him? Why are we listening to any of those guys? They are making our situation worse. They said in writing yesterday that the solution is to spend more money, that’s what got us into the problem, too much debt too much consumption and now we are going to solve it with more debt and more consumption? That’s like telling Tiger Woods, you got another girlfriend then you solve your problem".
"(Obama) is making the situation worse for us. We are all going to pay the price for this in one-two or three years. The next time we have problems in the economy, which will not be too long, we don’t have any bullets left, we have shot everything we have. What are they going to do? Quadruple the debt, print more money. We don’t have any trees left. "
