That seems like a legitimate theory / possibility... but only if the supply and demand for assets within the hierarchical group remain constant. Given a "free market" the price paid for those assets should correlate to the percentage of devaluation -- double the number of greenbacks and double the cost of any asset.

However, I think it unwise to assume such static asset values. The trick (IMHO) is to pick the correct hard asset for investment the demand for which will rise against the tide.

Perhaps this is the rational for investing in Au, Ag, etc., I happen to think so; but, then again, who knows?
