Gold was a much better inflation hedge, earning an annual 10.9% in real terms between 1966 and 1981.Why have shares been such a flimsy hedge?
Although the 5% yearly results were not much better than inflation then, he figured she must know best: "I would just say, 'Sure, go ahead.'".
(The whole situation would look much better with eurozone inflation of 3 or 4 percent).
However she stressed that RPIJ - which will use a different arithmetical formula to RPI for calculating average prices - would be a much better measure of inflation and would be promoted as such each month, with the old RPI measure being given much less publicity.
We'll have as a result greater economic activity and a much better shot at keeping inflation low and unemployment lower.
With inflation under much better control, floating exchange rates (China is a big exception) and well-stocked foreign-exchange reserves now dominate in the emerging world, providing protection against falling exports and flighty foreign investors.A slump in these countries thus looks unlikely; so, however, does a return to the past decade's growth rates.
Including dividends, mortgage REITs have eked out an average annual total return of 4.8% since 1971 not much better than the 4.5% inflation average.
Ludwig does not simply clarify my doubts with English writing, it enlightens my writing with new possibilities
