Investor Jim Rogers drängte Leute, einen Dollar zu verlassen und sagt, daß er erwartet, von allen seinen US gereinigt zu werden Devisenguthaben bis zum Sommer folgendes Jahr.
“ Wenn Sie Dollar haben, dränge ich Sie hinauszugehen,“ Rogers, der in einem Interview von Singapur gesagt wird. Er ist der Vorsitzende der neuen York-gegründeten Rogers Holdings, früher bekannt als Beeland Interests Inc. “ Dem nicht eine Währung ist zu, besitzen Sie.“
The dollar fell 9.5 percent this year against a basket of six major currencies as a housing slump slowed the economy and losses stemming from subprime mortgage defaults spread among U.S. banks. Rogers, who said last month he was shifting out of all his dollar assets, plans to buy commodities, Japan’s yen, the Chinese yuan and the Swiss franc.
Interest rate futures traded on the Chicago Board of Trade show a 72 percent chance that the central bank will lower its target rate for overnight loans between banks to 4.25 percent on Dec. 11, its third reduction this year.
Rogers, who predicted the start of the global commodities rally in 1999, criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke for comments on the currency before a congressional committee on Nov. 8.
”He is a total fool,” Rogers said. ”He said Americans who buy only American goods are not affected if the value of the U.S. dollar goes down. I was terrified.”
Bernanke said the only effect of a weaker dollar on a typical American with their wealth in dollars, buying consumer goods in dollars, would be ”their buying powers, it makes imported goods more expensive.”
Rogers said that’s not right.
”If you only buy American products and the dollar goes down, the price of oil goes up, copper goes up, wheat goes up,” he said. ”That affects you. He doesn’t understand the economy as far as I can see.”
