Jim Rogers loves Asia, while Dick Morris rages against AmericaARROYO GRANDE, Calif. (MarketWatch) -- Talk about an "odd couple:" how about a match-up between commodities guru Jim Rogers and political consultant Dick Morris? One's touting China, the other's doubting America.
Odd couple? Yes, but while there's no conspiracy between them, their contrasting spirits shine a bright light on the coming global recession, on who'll get hurt most. Let's look.
First, the savvy and always entertaining Jim Rogers has a new book coming in December, "A Bull in China: Investing Profitably in the World's Greatest Market." This time Jim's putting his money where his mouth is. He's not only writing another fascinating book about his global adventures, he's sending a powerful signal.
This time Jim's even selling his home in New York, leaving America and relocating to Singapore, a signal as ominous as Halliburton relocating in Dubai and others abandoning ship for ports outside the realm of the sinking dollar.
Now contrast Roger's decision against the new book Morris co-authored: "Outrage: How Illegal Immigration, the United Nations, Congressional Ripoffs, Student Loan Overcharges, Tobacco Companies, Trade Protection, and Drug Companies are Ripping Us Off, and What You Can Do About It."
