“Inflation today is undoubtedly the greatest threat to one’s capital and we recommend the April 1 issue of Forbes which has an excellent article on this subject. It essentially states that many of the much-touted approaches to protect against inflation are traps, particularly for the uninitiated, in such areas as real estate, antiques, art and so on.” (aprile 1974)
“Inflation and the psychology which derives from it are largely responsible for the changes in demands made by owners (common stockholders) and by creditors (bondholders). Logic would seem to dictate that common stocks will find the going increasingly difficult at current or higher inflation and/or interest rates. We are mindful, however, that logic only works in the financial marketplace over long periods of time; in the short term, fear and hop tend to dominate the scene. (marzo 1981)”
