Michelle, inflation hedges are relative. Real estate are inflation hedges but are not transportable, gold, diamonds, platinum and the like are inflation hedges because they do not oxidize and are easely transportable.

The problem is that after periods of strong inflation it is usually followed by recession then real estate fall in price diamonds have no buyers and only gold is still considered a currency for over 3/4 of the world population.

In a nutshell go figure <gg> aside of all this the consumption of gold for industrial and fashion needs with Asia recovering will be well over present mining supplies.

But wen will Asia recover ?? <gg>
