invested in stocks instead.

I think that baseball cards would be a terrible hedge against inflation, but maybe I'm wrong.

In an inflationary market? That doesn’t jive.

That's entirely false. PE ratios are high. That is true.

Hard to have mass default when everyone still has jobs.

So you are holding cash while trillions of new dollars are being forced into

Kind of a rock and a hard place. Where are you going to dump cash in this

So buy when RE and Stocks are at their all time high?

Or hold cash when everything else is going up. You decide.

That’s the dilemma

do both as a hedge. Have properties for inflation and cash for buying back in.

Food advice... I’m trying to figure out how much to do in either side of that

Depends on you. People have different beliefs on what is safe, risk tolerance &

If you believe inflation is coming, you should be getting a 30 year mortgage now

Once liquidity is smashed an opportunity will come. Agreed it won’t last forever

If you bought at the peak of your examples , you would still be massively up

Opportunity cost of doing so is tremendously high, though.

So how are you hedging against inflation?

Ironically Real Estate is a good hedge against inflation, or so I've read. Also

Imagine buying the Nikkei at its peak in 89
