What will save you from hyperinflation is weapons and ammo. And being able to create something--anything--that can be bartered.
Barter is a currency that is oblivious to inflation. Bartered goods are worth whatever they are worth...they are the currency.

Well, gold will always be worth something....fiat paper, not so much.

Gold and silver are not investments. They are hedges.

Look at be Y axis. Gold over CPI. The CPI is a politicized statistic, and it does not adequately assess the rise in staples such as food and energy.

someone was in a bit of a hurry and miss titled the top quadrants of their graph - the labels say '1nd Quadrant' and '2st Quadrant.'
What other errors have they committed in this? Are they hoping to slow the rush to gold, so there is more for them?
No matter what they say, when our dollar goes into the abyss, if you have a storehouse of gold that can be sold, someone will pay for it - with whatever currency (of greater value) is demanded.

FMJ lead is worth so much more than gold or silver.

In a SHTF scenario these anti gold fools will be dancing like little circus dogs for a little piece of my gold.

These types of studies are useless. Gold is simply meant to replace paper as the main asset in your holdings. Converting paper to gold allows one to "buy back in" after the Greenback is a distant memory.
Gold can't protect you from hyper inflation because it is meant to...when used properly. At some point, gold is replaced by whatever paper money replaces the US dollar. It's asset protection. Not inflation protection.

LOL. I’ve already saved hundreds of dollars investing in peanut butter when it was cheap.
I’m down to my last 20 jars, sorry I didn’t invest another hundred dollars.

Usually when an article like this is published it’s a veiled signal to do just the opposite - in other words, it’s time for people to get gold.

Maybe gold won’t save you, but God can. That’s where we should all have our faith.
