Evolving Approaches to Hedging Inflation

Many investors are concerned about the potential for rising inflation. There are several investment options at their disposal including:

Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS),
Commodities,
Commercial Real Estate (REITs), and
Global Infrastructure.
