Market Realist � You should invest in an inflation hedge now�despite low inflationThe graph above shows year-over-year inflation rates based on the CPI (consumer price index), the core CPI, and the PCE (personal consumption expenditure) for the last ten years. The core CPI excludes items like food and energy (XLE), which tend to be volatile.
The latest figures show that inflation has dipped. According to the CPI, the inflation rate is 1.3%�compared to the 1.2% according to the PCE. However, according to the core CPI, inflation is 1.7%. This is mainly because oil (USO) prices have dipped considerably. Since the core CPI excludes oil prices, core inflation has remained constant, unlike CPI and PCE, which include oil.
As inflation is way below the Fed�s long-term target, the Fed can afford to keep interest rates lower for a little longer.
Although inflation remains low, it�s a good idea to have a small inflation hedge in your portfolio. A small inflation hedge adds diversification benefits to a portfolio.
