I would have NOTHING in bond funds , I see increasing interest rates (and high inflation) in the near future no matter who wins ... maybe you can be short bonds...

CASH is good , but not great ,, stocks will do well in high inflation but probably will not outperform inflation if it REALLY heats up... Companies with TONS of debt are real good if they have decent cash flow as inflation will kill the value of their debt in a buyback/payoff and their pricing in the market right now is probably rock bottom ... conversely companies that loan money will suck (banks , GE ,, etc.) .

If you think hyperinflation is coming buy gold/silver (physical only)...

Preservation of buying power will have you in a great position in a few years...

Thanks to everyone for the advice.

I didn’t do anything, but at least that was a decision rather than the lack of one.

Would have posted earlier, but I could barely get into FR to read the thread and posting was impossible for most of yesterday for me.

I hope everyone has a safe Election Day.
