Yes. The market is simply a collection of assets. So if you own
them when they the dollar is being diluted and asset prices are
inflating, you will participate in the inflation. But do the math
on how much market exposure you would have to have to fully hedge
yourself from the effects of reduced purchasing power from deficit
spending. It's unlikely for the vast majority of people, even
subscribers here, and only if they also pick the perfect assets
that inflate at or near the rate of inflation....which is not the
nonsense CPI number we get shoved down our throats by the Gov that
wants to keep spending no matter what. They peeled out asset
inflation a long time ago and left us with a basket of goods
measured like we're still in the 1960's. God forbid modernization,
but why don't they reach back and use 20 year old technology
instead of 60 year old tech to construct a real time, infinitely
more accurate measure of inflation? Well, I think we all know
why.
