Jim Rogers: "I'm long the Euro."

Quote from Debaser82:

Another nice call, Jim.

I'm curious where he thinks we are heading next.

traditionally, he says he prefers to be out of crowded trades, but who knows.
 
Quote from Debaser82:

"Well I’m long the Euro because I expect them to come through this one okay. Either Greece is going to be papered over and they’ll give a blast to the Euro, or they’re going to let Greece go bankrupt. In my view, this is what they should do because then people would say, “Wow. They’re serious about sound economies in Europe.” That would make the Euro very strong. Then people would know they are not just going to print money or paper over failure.

Either way, I think there’s probably a rally coming. There’s a huge short position in the Euro and whenever there’s been a huge short position in anything, it’s sometimes profitable to go to the other side. So, I am long the Euro because I think there are too many pessimists.

Maybe Greece will go bankrupt and the Euro will collapse before people realize, “That’s good … that’s not bad.” Sometimes it takes a lot for perception to become reality or reality become perception."
Apparently, the interview with Jim Rogers quoted in the opening posts dates March this year.

The Euro has rallied tremendously past 2 months. Is it a "real" lasting trend or a "head fake" ? That is the # 1 question.
