Dollar Bear Jim Rogers Says He’s Buying Greenback: Tom Keene

Investor Jim Rogers, who last month called the U.S. dollar a “total disaster” in the long term, said he’s buying the greenback because markets are increasingly pessimistic about the currency.

“I actually own the dollar right now,” Rogers said in a radio interview on “Bloomberg Surveillance” with Tom Keene and Ken Prewitt. “I saw that 95 or 96 percent of people are bearish on the dollar, so I stepped in and bought.”
