Screaming Inflation

Worried about inflation?
Inflation is driving the headline news these days. If the financial media has its way, you should be worried about it.
Or should you?

The fact that inflation numbers have shown an increase of 3%, 4% or 5% over the past year is irrelevant.

What is relevant, to you, your expenses, and your portfolio, is whether that 3%, 4% or 5% increase will continue unchecked, year after year after year.

With the bellwether 10-year U.S. Treasury note plummeting in yield from 1.75% to 1.25% over the past six months, capital markets are strongly suggesting runaway inflation won’t happen.

Is it time to position your portfolio for deflation instead?

Take a moment and read this article. Maybe it is time to diversify your portfolio to embrace the unknown in both stocks and bonds.
