"The Brazilian Finance Minister has just said we are in the midst of a currency war, a foreign exchange war and the central banks of emerging economies have a choice to do nothing - then they have high domestic inflationary pressures with accompanying bubbles - or they tighten monetary policies and their currency becomes even stronger and you have a speculative bubble in the currency. So the Fed has put them actually in a very difficult position and I believe we are going to end up with bubbles in precious and to some extent in emerging economies’ real estate and equity markets and every bubble eventually bursts. It does not have to happen tomorrow. It could last another year, but the Fed is actually endangering emerging economies at the present time."

The whole world against the fed? LOL. Currency wars? Geezus, WTF will the fed think of next?

Jim Rogers warns equities could collapse; Bubble forming in bonds

Investment guru Jim Rogers warns stock markets could collapse if the global recovery fails to reignite and is urging investors to turn to commodities.

Rogers, who launched the pioneering Quantum fund with George Soros in 1970, believes the commodity market could continue to thrive irrespective of the eventual path of the world economy.

"If the world economy does not get better, stocks are going to fall apart," Rogers told the Economic Times.

"My way of playing is to be long on commodities because either way, whether the world gets better or does not get better, commodities are going to do well.

"So, if I would do any defensive buying, I would start in the commodities market, not the stock market."

Rogers also believes a bubble is forming in bond markets.

"Bonds are getting too much high. We have a bubble forming in bonds. Bonds are selling at much higher price and that bubble is going to burst some day," Rogers adds.

"I do not know if it is going to pop this year or in 2012. I have no idea, but it is at worrisome levels. And I do not know how much longer you can keep promoting a bubble like that.

"The central bank in the US is doing it. Eventually no matter how good a bubble looks, it pops and when it pops, people sell their bonds and that is going to happen. I just do not know when."
