While last year can certainly give us many examples of how things can go bad, I don't think it says much about what might or might not be a good inflation hedge.
As for "Can I give you?" -If we have learned anything from this board and the last year it should be find your own investments, make your own decisions. No one will be as sensitive to your own thinking and strategy as you will be.
But, just to put it out there, here is what I believe is an inflation hedge. It isn't direct like TIPS, more indirect, like gold. It has recently cut the dividend almost by 2/3. There is no insider buying. If you consider this consider it long and hard, and do a lot of DD- like Brewer says, you should know more about it than anyone else on earth.
I am buying WY. Six million acres of mostly very high quality commercial timber, mostly located in the 2 premier timber areas of the US- PNW and Southeast. Well financed, historically very well managed, the best silviculture practices. For a while tropical timber growing areas were a big fad, but it has been found that while radiata and similar species grow lots of pulpwood, it stinks for dimension lumber, timbers, and poles.
This should be considered, if at all, only for very long term oriented investors.
As a kicker, they may at some time over the next few years become a REIT, which is eagerly anticipated and would likely give the price a shot. At present they are the last integrated seed- to- board timber company in the US anyway.
Isn't he asking about a hedge against USD depreciation? It is easier to defend a city if you know where the attackers will be. Sometimes you have to just make up your mind.
