When and how will it end?
That’s the question many have been asking regarding inflation.
The looming new year brings uncertainty in the form of economic inflation along with a new COVID variant. It makes sense then that people would want answers as to when we can expect to see some kind of relief.
It’s been apparent for a while now that this inflationary period wasn’t going anywhere any time soon. It took some people longer than others to come around to that reality, but it’s something that just about everyone admits now.
It’s hard to ignore when gas, groceries, heat, and every other important staple has gone up in price.
It’s even harder to ignore with Christmas this week.
And thanks to the worry brought on by the Omicron variant, people are rightly asking a lot of questions about what the next year will look like.
Worse? Better? The truth is no one knows, no matter what the headlines say to try and grab your attention.
This period of inflation won’t go away as quickly as some said it would at the beginning. At the same time, it’s not likely that this is going to be a doom-and-gloom scenario like others are claiming.
As with most things, the truth is somewhere in between. While it’s hard to say exactly what the economic landscape will look like over the next few years, it’s not hard to figure out just what investors should do to prepare.
It’s all about paying attention to the trends and seeing what direction things are going. Once you figure that out, getting in place for whatever 2022 will bring can be a fairly simple matter.
We already know that the pandemic devastated some industries and elevated others. Online retail, gaming, and videoconferencing all enjoyed record sales from early 2020 until now.
On the other side of that, hospitality, physical retail, and anything related to travel struggled during that time. Smaller businesses in those sectors and others went under. Many who worked in those industries had to find other jobs.
Investors paying attention were able to move fast enough to make money where the opportunities lay and avoid pain where it was inevitable. That story unfolded over much of 2020, repeated itself this year, and is due to play out again in 2022.
But while industries like gaming, online retail, and videoconferencing were the clear winners then, the winners of the next phase of this economic period are set to be very different.
The market conditions created just before and during the pandemic have made it so that commodities will thrive in the near term.
Honestly, saying that they’ll thrive might be selling it short.
Over the next few years, commodities like gold, uranium, rare earths, and other hard assets are set to take off in a way they only do every few decades.
These kinds of cycles, when they come along, make investors fortunes when those investors make the right moves. It’s all about knowing which commodities to track and which companies to invest in.
During the cycle that we’ve just started, it will be all about small, obscure companies positioned to skyrocket in value once the mainstream learns about their assets.
