RE:Inflation up strongly, gold downDollar-cost averaging got me in below a dollar (US) today. I am buying silver stocks too.
Today's news alone and a Fed response will not slow increasing rents, food prices, or clear clogged ports. History proves that the natural consequences of inflation means accelerating price increase as interest rates turn up. That seems counterintuitive, but it's the way things work, at least to a point. That point can be many, many months away, or even years. Or that point is when the system completely fails.
Hang on; the ride is going to get wild.
