The Inflation Investment You’ve Never Heard Of ~By Cory Burnell, MBA, CFA

Posted by: thepinetree on 03/06/2013 04:18 PM
Valley Springs, CA...Many investors are concerned about the risk of increased inflation in light of the Federal Reserve’s unprecedented balance sheet expansion from $900 billion to $3.1 trillion since 2008. This concern is warranted and begs the question how to invest to profit from inflation and protect one’s purchasing power. The most common answers are to invest in commodities such as precious metals, oil, gasoline, agriculture, etc., or Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS), and while these may be good answers are there any others? I’m glad you asked, because there’s one you’ve probably never considered. Senior secured floating rate loans (a.k.a. “Bank Loans”) have historically offered a relatively high correlation with inflation along with attractive returns. For example, in the 10-year period ended 9/30/2012 the Morningstar Bank Loan category had a 0.37 correlation with inflation while the DJ-UBS Commodity Index only provided a 0.24 correlation. Interestingly, U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS), typically purchased by investors to hedge inflation risks, only provided a 0.07 correlation with inflation.*

Traffic Update...She's Back...Loose Cow in Copperopolis

Posted by: thepinetree on 02/19/2013 07:48 AM
Copperopolis, CA...CHP is reporting a Loose Cow on Obyrnes Ferry and Shotgun Creek Road. Invariably one loose cow starts a whole chain reaction in the bovine community. Bulls then get out, other heifers start following her wanton behavior and it descends from there. Bovines herds get split up as miscreants get sold off. As old ranchers can tell you this type of behavior can always be expected with a change in the weather. Please use caution in this area for a fetching and loose cow...
