This is good advice, especially if you select stocks that are able to raise prices in an inflationary environment to maintain profit margin. Companies with strong brand names or intellectual assets will do well. It shouldn't be too hard to invest the proceeds of the short sale into a concentrated portfolio of quality stocks with an earnings yield of 12.5% or more.
well today the note holders are deciding maybe 5%+ CPI isn't a good deal for them and if the govt says 5%, I wonder what the real number is, 12%?
