Farmland. Might work for some with deep pockets and great research skills like Mike Burry. Others will lose money as they lost it with stocks. The fact that farmland - like RE - is illiquid will be both bane and blessing for some of these folks. Bane if you need to sell it, blessing - maybe - if you can't sell it through the downturn unlike stocks that are sold at the bottom.... Personally, I have no clue or inclination to buy farmland or RE for investments. BTW, if one uses cliche motivation "land is finite, human population is growing", one should be very sure A) that one's assumptions are correct B) that one knows more than average cliche spouting journalist. (c) Ken Fisher and all that. ;)
