Recorded on April 21 2026
Jim Rogers returns to Natural Resource Stocks for a sharp macro discussion on why he has sold all of his U.S. stocks, why he is still holding U.S. dollar cash, and why broad confidence across markets makes him more cautious, not less. In this interview, Rogers explains how crowd psychology, central bank money creation, and an unusually long stretch of market strength can create the kind of setup that leaves investors asking harder questions. He also breaks down why he still owns gold and silver, why he is not buying more at these highs, and why hard assets like agriculture may deserve more attention if the current market mood changes. Steve Yang presses Rogers on the apparent contradiction between distrusting fiat over the long run while still preferring U.S. dollars right now, and Rogers answers by focusing on what the world believes, not just what he believes personally. The conversation also covers geopolitics, market complacency, commodities, and what younger investors should learn from past cycles before the tide turns. #Millettian
