Jim Rogers was on Bloomberg radio on Sunday morning at 6:25 am and he was talking about the dollar declines, Helicopter Ben's humming propellers and the Chinese stock market. Two of Rogers's ideas that caught my attention were investments in agricultural commodities and in the renminbi, the Chinese currency. Unfortunately, it is inconvenient for small investors to purchase Chinese currency because of the Chinese government's low-valuation strategy. However, where you can invest easily is in various currencies through Everbank. The minimum deposits range from $10,000 to $20,000 (for the indexes). Unfortunately, Everbank does not offer renminbi cds, but they do have 15 other cds including Hong Kong.
Powershares has commodity index products including a DB agriculture fund.
It is unfortunate that I cannot trust the dollar now, but given the irresponsible history of the Fed, I would rather keep my savings in another currency and/or secure it through commodities tracking investments.
