Hyper inflation means the stock runs continue as well as real estate. Inflation adjusted will be negative returns but obviously far better than sitting in the bank making 0.01%

I hope you're right. However, a lot of people are not invested in the stock market or in real estate. And many who are, will need to divest because of debts. The Fed already owns most of the defaulted mortgages in the nation, having purchased them from banks so banks don't fail. They're at a tipping point, because when inflation hits, then people will need to spend money on food and goods and will default on massive loans. Real estate is in a massive bubble, and prices exceed what people can bear. When it collapses, so will the stock market. We're in for a massive depression ahead. Back in 2008 I had relatives lose their homes because they were over-leveraged in mortgage loans. In my area, adult kids can't afford the homes for sale. Those who do buy, are over-leveraged.
