So cars, wood + building supplies, labour, food, shipping all dramatically increased. What’s the best hedge against hyperinflation? Crypto? Ether?
Equities and real estate. Housing and cash flows never go out of style.

I’ve had folks who found out I’m about to take delivery of a Model Y offer me ~$10k over list if they can buy it immediately after I take delivery. It’s insane. (we’re keeping it of course)
Haha. Mine is a Model S. It's my baby so of course I couldn't sell it. I had just posted it for shits and giggles at a ridiculous price but I guess people are desperate. I'll sell it once my Cybertruck preorder is ready! haha`

What about land? My house is relatively inexpensive, the land it's on is worth like 10x as much.
The supply for land isn't great. The demand tends to grow over time. If there was a "new land" factory it could help!
Are the blue book sites up to date with these current trade in value trends, or is there a better place to reference prior to trade in?

> What is the reason new housing starts are not keeping top with demand? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_Rights_Act_of_1968#Title... But especially since https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equal_Credit_Opportunity_Act e: downvoters know I'm right ;) https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/OEHRENWBSHNO https://i.imgur.com/kP8ugvH.png
You add nothing to the conversation. Make an actual argument. Are you saying that the legislation reduced the level of housing created? Are you saying that redlining increased housing stock? Are you saying that black people having equal access to credit made white people less likely to build houses? Linking to Wikipedia with a wink and a nod to racism is not an argument. Be explicit with your argument here.

This is not quite correct. In high inflation credit markets disappear. 80%+ of housing is bought on mortgages. If 80% of housing demand disappears you get a 2008.
In high inflation environments, you want to lever up with debt to fund investments because your debt will be inflated away over time while you capture cash flow or asset appreciation. High yield debt (“junk bonds”) are also a great play for such a macro environment.

Objectively just about everything is abnormally expensive right now. Not just in the USA, but also Canada and Australia that I know of. Maybe other places as well.

Now's the time to sell a car if you have an extra to spare. One of the few times in history when cars actually appreciate. A car I bought for 53k 4 years ago I could've sold for 55k last week until I got cold feet. lol
