Book Review: Jim Rogers' "A Bull in China"

The day Nixon opened relations with China I was playing
poker with a group of State, CIA and military guys, in fact, one Diplo(spy) had just returned from China. To a
man they thought Nixon was a traitor for dealing with China. My thought was that he had just opened up a vast commercial market to the US. Jim Rodgers has
correctly predicted that China's developement into a
first world coutry will consume a huge amount of the
world's commodities and resources. If you had invested in commodities as Jim advised, you would have already made a nice pile. This boom will continue
for at least another 10 years. The only investments I
have right now are BRIC ETFs, commodities and ags.
I will leave the sub-prime fiasco for the suckers.
Those that dislike Soros do so because he backed Kerry against the Brainless Smirking Chimp. With Jim
its got to be jealousy. I have never known him to be
wrong about investments.
An excellant read are the books by Qiu Xiaolong.
Though fiction, he delves into the high and low life ot
China today.
