Inflation And Investing Since 1970

Major asset classes in low-inflation periods behave different from times of high inflation. While everyone knows gold is an inflationary hedge, the performance history of other asset classes in times of high and low inflation is less well-known.

At this session, Dr. Craig Israelsen, who has taught about family financial management to graduate and undergraduate students for over two decades, teaches advisors about this crucial issue affecting long-term investors, including:

• Various reviews of inflation rates in the U.S. over the past 46 years
• Measures of performance of major asset classes during periods of low and high inflation
• An evaluation of the performance of model portfolios during periods of low and high inflation

Craig now shares the monthly slides and transcript of his A4A webinars, giving you a scripted one-hour class you can teach in your own webinars, seminars, and client meetings.
