Is this the time to max out I-Bonds? Interest rate should increase since inflation is looking to rise?

Honestly physical gold never goes out of style; though, time to buy was months ago, but not a bad time now, either as it will only go up for a while imo.

Zero correlation between inflation and gold prices. ZERO

You have to be an absolute fool to own gold except for enough coins and physical gold to barter with if shite hits the fan.

Whoever started the lie about Gold is a hedge with inflation is a master marketer.

Gold was $300/ounce in ~ year 2000. Now it’s over 1900/ounce.

THATS BETTER THAN THE STOCK MARKET.

Easy to cherry pick a time frame.

Gold is only up 281% since 1980, pretty awful performance.

TIPS trade like Treasury Bonds,notes, bills, etc.. Because of inflation expectations TIPS trade at a negative yield currently -.854% on the 10 yr.. They also trade like notes and bonds so you can suffer principal losses. I Bonds do not trade and will not go negative on your yield.
