<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Cloudsweeper99, post: 1150176, member: 3011&quot;]Interesting question.&nbsp; I read one time that in Weimar Germany, stocks and real estate lost a tremendous amount of value - on the order of 80% of purchasing power - while PMs held their value.&nbsp; In the case of real estate, this was attributed to the fact that real estate is normally purchased at least in part with borrowed money.&nbsp; In a hyperinflationary economy, nobody will lend so the real value of property drops to the point where people can buy for all cash.&nbsp; However, this came from a single source and I&#039;ve never been able to verify it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
