Jim Rogers issues dire warning over Trump’s stock market: ‘The end will probably come soon.’ What he likes for safety

Legendary investor Jim Rogers warns that the extended global market rally may precede a sharp downturn, saying "the end will probably come soon." He has sold all U.S. stocks and is positioning for a crisis with large cash holdings in U.S. dollars and allocations to precious metals (gold and silver). Rogers cites the U.S. national debt ($38.97 trillion) and extreme market concentration — nearly 40% of the S&P 500’s weight in its top 10 names — as key risks. The piece highlights gold’s recent strength (up >40% over 12 months) and promotes alternatives such as art and diversified scarce-asset strategies as defensive plays. Market impact: a cautionary outlook that may support demand for safe-haven assets (gold, silver, cash) and fuel flows into alternative stores of value.
