Jim Rogers: China is going to have plenty of problems as we go along

Jim Rogers: There's no question that the first 30 years are the easiest 30 years when you're doing something like Deng Xiaoping did. And, secondly, there will certainly always be setbacks. Any country, any company, any family, any individual that rises has setbacks along the way. That's the way the world works. It's normal. And, as we just discussed, China has been trying to slow its economy for the past three years. Anyone who doesn't understand that China is slowing down should read the newspapers. And, I as I was just saying, they're trying to loosen up too soon. But this is part of a plan. They have been successful so far, but whether they will continue to be successful, who knows? In America, in the 19th century, we had a horrible Civil War; we had many Depressions; we had very little rule of law; we had periodic massacres in the streets; and we had few human rights. And yet we became an extremely successful country in the 20th century. China is going to have plenty of problems as we go along. What they're going to be and when and why, I don't know. But I do know there are going to be plenty of problems.

Jim Rogers : China Inflation to get Worse

Jim Rogers: China doesn't have the excesses that we have in the US or even in Europe. China has huge reserves of currency, while America is the largest debtor nation in the history of the world. They are not comparable situations. But as far as inflation goes, China has inflation and this is just going to make its inflation worse. If I were China—and I'm not, and there's no reason for it to listen to me—it should keep monetary policy tight until inflation is killed. It's not killed yet, and this is not going to help kill it. - in Hard Assets Investor
