Interest Rates will go higher or Stock Markets will go Down



ET Now: What do you make of the statements coming from FOMC and the recent data from the US? By when do you expect to see a rise in interest rates?

Jim Rogers: It is clear to me that what is going to happen is that as the US pulls back (stimulus), interest rates will go higher or stock markets will go down eventually, or both will happen. Unfortunately, when that happens, people in Washington - bureaucrats, academics, etc - are going to get scared or will panic. When people call them up and tell them that the pain is too great, they are going to relent and start printing money again ... Markets will breathe a sigh of relief, they will rally, go up for a while; but unfortunately that may then lead to the last leg of this poor market because rather than staying the course - which central banks have rarely done in the past few decades - they say everything is okay, but things will just get worse.
