<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bluesboy65, post: 813600, member: 23329&quot;]Ahearn, investments in PM&#039;s as an inflationary hedge is a common, well understood practice.&nbsp; In a nutshell an inflation hedge is an investment in a hard asset/commodity that is negatively correlated with inflation.&nbsp; Many respected&nbsp; economic commentators agree that we will likely experience rising inflation within 18 months or so.&nbsp; Whether or not you agree that inflation is a likely prospect, that was what I meant by &quot;hedge against inflation&quot;.&nbsp; So assuming an inflationary environment you either don&#039;t understand the common use of the term &quot;hedge&quot; or have developed an opinion that for the first time in history, fiat currency will outperform PM&#039;s.&nbsp; And, of course I would be willing to sell when the time is right, otherwise what&#039;s the point?</p><p><br /></p><p>I will concede that pulling together investment capital is difficult and it never seems like you can get far enough ahead of the game but the alternative is to write off investing as a waste of time altogether.&nbsp; Perhaps you could enlighten everyone with your top pick of an inflationary hedge.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
