Re << telling lies about inflation, and now they are going to come clean on the new cars >>
First, an observation, that gold, silver, platinum, and palladium all stirred; interesting.
Inflation seems persistent, even as underlying dynamics are noisy, what with money dilution, trade war, supply chain effects, etc etc. which some might believe to be transitory.
To vaccinate against inflation, whichever the variant, persistent or transitory, just gold might not be sufficient.
May have chanced upon the answer.
I thought about what Haim said over time about carbon emissions, and am now positioned in the ‘equity’ product that is KRBN, as well as its shorted put option, strike 50
KRBN is retail version of carbon credit futures in the form of an ETF-esque ‘thing’.
It is like a crypto, in that it stacks, is proof-of-paperwork, but pays an on-going option premium, by either shorted put option (as KRBN seems to rise with some consistency) and/or shorted covered-call option (because its rise is persistent, but not in any ramping manner), and given the dependability of the yield, is proof-of-stake-esque .

It exactly (by a few cents difference) doubled in the past 365 days, and given the mechanics of the government mandated schema, and the inexpensive cost to industry (Tesla creates carbon credit, and Volkswagen buys it, all out of thin air and paper shuffling). It seems naughty.
