TOP PICK
US government has a printing press working overtime. If they continue to print money, inflation is going to come. It is not a big concern right now because we are in a recession. Looking forward to the next year or 2 we could actually see hyperinflation. When you play this, you are getting some US treasury bonds but they are inflation protected. About a 6% yield.
TOP PICK
Bond ETF. Thinks the 30-year bull market in bonds is over. This provides insurance against expected inflation.
COMMENT
An excellent holding, but what if we don't have inflation? If you have it, uses stoploss and don't hold it too long.
