Do you guys have any other options?
Owning businesses with pricing power is probably the only good option. Treasuries are a promised loss due to inflation. Gold hasn't moved in a decade. The overall stock market will likely benefit from inflation, but if the consumer is squeezed we could see another 2007 style crash and even though home and stock prices should be rising, if everyone is spending all their money on food that just won't happen. I suspect this will be the end result at some point. Until then, 'dance while the music is playing' as they say. Just make sure not to be the last one out the exits... I'd love to push real estate right now, but prices being 50% higher than the peak of the housing boom and people leaving their jobs during a period of high inflation has me thinking that the rental market isn't where I'd want my money parked.
