Jim Rogers told Bloomberg that the U.S. risks sending the world into a depression as its bailouts of failed companies rob healthy businesses of capital.

“The U.S. is taking assets from competent people and giving them to incompetent people,” said Roger

“That’s bad economics.”

Jim Rogers on Tuesday said U.S. stocks have yet to hit their bottom in this bear market, saying there could be no lasting rally until the economy recovers.

Rogers said he is unsure where to invest, although he likely will sell the U.S. dollar — which he called “terribly flawed” — and buy commodities

He told Reuters that efforts to pull the economy out of a steep downturn will not drive a lasting recovery because the government is propping up failing businesses and not allowing them to go bankrupt.

“None of which does much for the economy down the road. It’s trying to postpone some pain we’re going to have to take,”

U.S. stocks may rally because of the enormous amount of money the government is pumping into the U.S. economy, but “it’s not going to last,” Rogers said.

“I don’t think the bottom is here, maybe ‘a’ bottom, but not ‘the’ bottom. The economy is going to get worse. You can’t have a good stock market without a good economy,” he said.

Where to invest money?

“I don’t know where I’m going to wind up putting my money. But at the moment I’m doing nothing but watching,” he said. “I may just have to wind up putting it all in commodities because commodities are the only thing (whose) fundamentals are being enhanced.”

The Dollar?

“I want to get out of the U.S. dollar sometime this year, at least I plan to, because it’s a terribly flawed currency”
