In the beginning of the turbulent and unpredictable financial situation in the world in 2026, 84-year-old "Commodity King" Jim Rogers has provided his survival guide. This legendary investor ventured into Wall Street at the age of 26, made a name for himself by accurately bottoming out the Austrian stock market in the 1980s, and accurately predicted the global stock market crash in 1987 and the 2008 US subprime mortgage crisis. Journalists interviewed Jim Rogers. In the interview, he elaborated on his views on potential crises, specific risk avoidance strategies, and the underlying logic of his optimism towards metals. Facing potential crises, Jim Rogers revealed that he has liquidated all his US stock holdings, instead viewing physical commodities such as gold, silver, and copper as a "perfect insurance policy," and plans to leave them as inheritance for future generations.
