That is a critically important point.

Inflation is HUGELY understated right now - deliberately made to look "tame" by manipulation of government formulas and reporting methods. It's GOING to be a significant factor in the coming months/years, exacerbated by a weak dollar.

I'd say the smart place to put $$$ right now is in foreign currency markets.
