I started serious Investing Journey in Jan 2000 to create wealth through long-term investing and short-term trading; but as from April 2013 my Journey in Investing has changed to create Retirement Income for Life till 85 years old in 2041 for two persons over market cycles of Bull and Bear.

Since 2017 after retiring from full-time job as employee; I am moving towards Investing Nirvana - Freehold Investment Income for Life investing strategy where 100% of investment income from portfolio investment is cashed out to support household expenses i.e. not a single cent of re-investing!

It is 57% (2017 to Aug 2022) to the Land of Investing Nirvana - Freehold Income for Life!

Stocks crushed after inflation hits 40-year high: Nasdaq falls 3.5%, S&P 500 suffers worst week since January

Why rushing out of market to take profits or cut losses to fight inflation?

Gurus always tell us to stay invested to fight inflation??? How come like that? Stay in cash to fight inflation???

Monday. STI crashes 2%?

OK. OK! How Scary Is Inflation???

    Uncle8888,

    There's inflation in COEs, hawker centres & electricity bills.

    Deflation in stock markets.

    Confusion in investors.


    Gurus are half-right. Cash is trash in the long run. Cash is gold in the short run.

    But long-duration investments will be crushed during inflation i.e. profitless hype stocks, long-maturity bonds, companies with high debts, and even good but rosy-valued stocks.

    So far this inflation is very different from the 1970s in 1 big sense ... the US Dollar is booming.

    US Dollar index has jumped 15% in 1 year ... a huge move for currencies. No wonder gold hasn't chiong up like the 1970s.

    SGD has declined 4.6% against USD over the past year. Still one of the strongest currencies in the world.

    Maybe time for USD to roll over. Who knows? Lol.

      What is a person to do?

      Those who are working still can hope for salary adjustment but, but retirees?

    Invest in shares with rising absolute dividend $ yearly (aristocrats) to fight inflation?
