Inflation has been minimized for a long time, but that could be about to change

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Oct. 25, 2022 - PRLog -- Trajan Wealth and Matt Coffina, their portfolio manager for Expanding Moat and Defensive Moat strategies, released a new blog post that discusses investment strategies during a time of inflation, and the risks involved with trying to predict the future path of the economy.

By looking through past trends in times of inflation, Matt discusses the surrounding topics that can lead to inflation. He also discusses how to hedge and non-hedge your investments when preparing for a rise in inflation.

"As for liquid assets, short-term bonds, Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities, and I-bonds can all provide some degree of inflation protection. Short-term bonds can be rolled into higher-yielding securities when they mature, while TIPS and I-bonds adjust their coupon payments for inflation."

Matt also discusses stocks and the conventional wisdom that they are poor inflation hedges. He breaks down the justified price/earnings formula, which is an abbreviated cash flow model. He also discusses the different aspects of the formula, (earnings, free cashflow/earnings, cost of equity, and growth) to make sure it's crystal clear.

He also gives the examples of Visa and Mastercard as possible investment targets due to their performance in this formula. These companies have advantages in their business structure that makes them attractive options in an inflation-driven market.

When you're looking to make investments, a strong analytical eye is important, and using the proven formulas can help separate companies that tend to perform well in a given economy. When dealing with the current market and the risks that come with it, make sure you're aware of the investments that are best equipped to succeed during inflation.
