We have inflation: its in assets. Its deflating so AG is pumping hard and fast. too much harder and the fools who own US dollars will be sorry they do, then the jig is up. Then its time for deflation.... But it could go on for years.

mm, I like foreign bonds with at least part of your portfolio right now. German and Euro are my favorites. You have a shot at some appreciation if the dollar weakens, as I suspect it will, along with the interest. Also, you may want to try buying options in a 95% cash/5% long puts and calls system while you explore that as a way to play without any possibility of losing money. If you get good at it, you can become more aggressive and go to 90% cash and 10% long options. Or, you can wait for a buying opportunity. I believe there are buyable US stocks. Some of the tech stocks under $10 deserve consideration. Most are bowwows, but some are not. And a few have more cash than their share price.
