Even if deflation is short term risk, what is your long term 'inflation' play?

  1. Still out sick, worst illness in over 10 years for me. First time in my life I have missed bidweek at the office :eek:

    Been good for a mental holiday though, playing a little full tilt poker!

    Taking out a huge fixed rate loan at historically low interest rates. Use the $$$ to buy physical gold and paper gold. Then wait for the massive inflation shock and use the appreciated gold to pay back the loans for free! :D

  3. DBA is a good ETF that would profit from inflation.
    The AUD would also be a good bet as it is has a decent correlation with the commodities markets.

  5. There you go.... However, I was wondering, would gold stocks go up as well, or only actual gold?
