In the short term, gold hedges well. Over the long term, stocks and equities has always proven the superior asset class to counter inflation.

Hi Jimmy,

Indeed you are right holding onto assets in general can mitigate the risk you pointed out. Depending on your perspective, an item/security is usually considered an asset if it generates income back to you.

I suggest you take into your consideration;

financial assets such as equities and bonds or non financial assets such as real estate or equipments used in business to produce a profit.

These financial/non-financial assets have an additional edge because they give you income in the form of dividend or profit or interest and they should be worth more in future dollars albeit whichever currency they are denominated in.
