Light-Years Ahead of the Crowd: Interview With Jim Rogers

Jim Rogers has a severe case of wanderlust. The longtime investor and author, whose books include Investment Biker and Adventure Capitalist, also has a new address: Singapore. Rogers recently moved his family to the island state from New York because he wants his young daughters to learn to speak fluent Chinese, which will be crucial in this century, he says.

Crisis Counsel with Warren Buffet, Bill Miller etc.

Will the subprime lending meltdown and credit crunch send us into a financial free fall? Fortune asked the sharpest minds in business to share their reactions to the downturn, and their insights on the road ahead.

• Warren Buffett
• Many institutions are marking to model rather than marking to market. The recent meltdown in much of the debt market, moreover, has transformed this process into marking to myth.
  
• Wilbur Ross
• Henry M. Paulson
• John Mack
• Bill Miller
• These things flow through the system, and they're part of the system. They're normal. They happen usually every three to five years.
• But these events represent opportunities. When markets get locked up like this, it's virtually always the case that you'll have opportunities if you have liquidity.
  
• Instead of worrying how bad it's going to get, I think people should be thinking about where the opportunities might be.
• The NYSE financial index is probably the best barometer of what's to come. So far it's telling you it's not over. It's still falling.
  
• But just as financials lead on the downside, they will lead on the upside.
• Robert Shiller
• Jim Rogers
• Market corrections are coming.
  
• Jim Chanos
• We don't know how bad this gets. The problem is we don't know how bad the hole is.
• The areas of excess are going to get pulverized, and any overreactions will be areas for people to look for bargains ultimately.
  
• But I don't think we're anywhere close to that yet.
• Stephen S. Roach
• Amy Brinkley
• Laura Tyson
• Jeremy Grantham
• Ben Stein
