>> or is he saying that we all should hedge for higher inflation or interest rates? He is saying that his babble has passed the point of incoherence and plain meaninglessness. It is not possible in a general way to be hedged against anything. Those buying the hedge might escape the ill effects of some future event. But the people selling the hedge will bear the loss. If he means that he will print currency to the point of inflating prices, then current holders of dollars will lose. If the current holders sell their dollars to someone else (hedge), then that someone else will lose. So how does society in general hedge itself against the loss that he is planning to cause ?
