LONDON: JIM Rogers, the investor who predicted the start of the commodities rally in 1999, said Nouriel Roubini is wrong about the threat of bubbles in gold and emerging-market stocks.
Many commodities are still down from record highs and equity markets aren’t on the brink of collapse, Rogers, chairman of Singapore-based Rogers Holdings, said in an interview on Wednesday. The price of gold will double to at least $2,000 an ounce in the next decade, he said.
Roubini, the New York University professor who warned in 2006 about the coming financial crisis, said on October 27 that investors are borrowing dollars to buy assets and creating “huge” asset bubbles. Rogers said he’s not buying stocks now, though he may buy more gold.
“What bubble?” Rogers said, when asked if he agreed with Roubini’s view. “It’s clear Roubini hasn’t done his homework, yet again.”
