What companies do best with higher than average inflation? Would you buy Gold in the short term? What investments are you looking at if we do enter an inflationary period?

Big questions....... when you know the answers clue us in.
Gold is a safety play. People buy gold when they are fearful.
I have not changed my investing strategy one iota and don't plan to. It's the reason I say to buy great companies vs almost anything else. They'll manage their way.
The FED has been ROOTING for inflation for years. There's nothing wrong with inflation -- as long as it's gradual.
The news is all over the map..... and news moves the markets when there's nothing else going on. In the end -- PROFITS and TOP LINE (sales) Growth are what count.
