Inflation
#1
(Didn't know whether to put this in The Economy area or here)

Inflation is currently in the Death By A Thousand Cuts phase at 1.5%.

But it will be back in a big way eventually as the Fed is running out of ammo.

Some even write that "a little inflation will be good for investors/economy"

A good article on Morningstar got me wondering about this. Previously I had simply followed Rick Ferri's (Portfolio Solutions) bond allocation in buying TIPS.

Is Your Retirement Portfolio's Asset Allocation on Track?

This weekend's question is:

Are you investing (some or all) of your assets in preparation for higher inflation?

Have a terrific week everyone!
