Today’s Inside Wall Street comes from colleague Jeff Brown. And he has an opportunity that we couldn’t wait another day to share with you. Jeff is offering you access to what he says is an inflation-proof, recession-proof, crash-proof strategy. He believes it can help you keep your wealth growing ahead of inflation, even if the market goes down… This strategy returned more money during the skyrocketing inflation and stagflation of the 1970s than any other investment Jeff has witnessed… And Jeff’s using it today for gains as large as 900%… 2,338%… 3,900%… even an incredible 5,344%.

Then, read on for Jeff Brown’s four favorite, alternative strategies to thrive in the current market conditions… --------------------------------------------------------------- Four Ways to Hedge Against Market Chaos By Jeff Brown, Editor, The Bleeding Edge [Jeff Brown] It’s rough out there… Inflation is at a 40-year high. According to the Consumer Price Index (CPI), everyday goods are now 9.1% more expensive than one year ago. We’re seeing shortages of everyday goods. We have a war in Eastern Europe destabilizing the world’s oil and gas markets. And stocks have been absolutely no help this year for investors looking to grow their wealth. All three major American indices are solidly in “bear market” territory. I know these are trying times. And that’s why I’m sharing alternative ways for investors to protect and grow their wealth in these uncertain times. Here are four of my favorite strategies for thriving in the current market environment… Recommended Link [The End of America’s Empire?]( [image]( A strange phenomenon is washing over America… (NOT inflation, rent increases, gas, groceries, political division, or a pandemic) And former Goldman Sachs managing director and best-selling author, Nomi Prins, says: “A reshaping of our global financial system has [ignited a $40 trillion transfer of wealth from the middle class to the rich…]( that could forever split the entire nation into two groups: ‘the new rich’ or ‘the new poor’ – you will have to make a choice.” Because the world’s most powerful groups: MIT, The Gates Foundation, The United Nations, Visa, 77 global Governments, the world’s most powerful group of unelected officials, and a [new Executive Order from President Biden…]( Are igniting a financial event that could soon transfer $40 trillion of middle-class wealth – your savings – funneled to the rich.

In June, the Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate by another 75 basis points… the biggest increase since 1994. That brings us up to a range of 1.5%–1.75%. While the Federal Funds Rate is still near historic lows, the upside of rising rates is that it makes fixed income investments more attractive. And one area of fixed income I’m particularly interested in is convertible corporate debt. Here’s how it works… A convertible bond is a fixed-income investment that delivers a yield to its investors. Like a traditional bond, a convertible bond delivers regular income and will return all our principal investment at its maturity date. But these bonds can do something else as well. [Featured: Goldman Sachs Alum Sounds Alarm on “Next US Crisis”]( As the name suggests, these bonds can be “converted” into shares in the company that issues them. The conversion happens at a predetermined conversion ratio and conversion price. These bonds can be converted at any time during the bond’s life. And after reviewing the inventory of convertible debt currently on offer, it might surprise us to see the kind of opportunities out there. Already, we’ve begun to put together a core database of safe, convertible debt offerings for technology companies. These offer yields anywhere from 5% to over 7%. This is an area my team and I are actively investigating. And we’ll be sharing more research with our subscribers in the weeks ahead.

Timberland My second idea to preserve and grow our wealth in the years ahead will probably come as a surprise. It’s timberland. That’s right. It’s land… with trees on it. Timberland can be a great asset to help preserve and grow your wealth. For starters, the asset is not correlated with stocks. Timberland can also produce a reliable income stream. We can harvest portions of our forest at regular intervals. A large enough parcel of timberland can be managed to produce annual harvests that will produce regular income. And that income can more than cover taxes associated with the land. After a period of time, timberland investments can also produce large capital gains. For example, the value of timberland in the Pacific Northwest – as measured by the NCREIF Timberland Index – returned 14.42% last year. I recently had dinner with a colleague of mine who purchased a large piece of property in rural Michigan. He commissioned a forester to survey his land. He was told that he could reclaim close to 30% of his purchase price by selectively harvesting the trees on his property. Bear in mind, this didn’t mean harvesting all the trees, but just “tidying up.” In this environment, I’m actively looking into the idea right now. Perhaps one day, I’ll have my own forest to manage and harvest. And I have to say, there’s something appealing about owning our own plot of timberland and watching our investment – literally – grow in front of our own eyes. [Featured: Caught on Camera - Florida man leaves crypto crowd speechless…]( 3. Agriculture Operations Along the same lines as timberland, agricultural land can be a great way to insulate our wealth in the years ahead. Many would argue that food and water are our most essential “assets” for life. And similar to timberland, agricultural land is a “real” asset. Unlike fiat currency, these types of assets will keep pace with inflation With the invasion of Ukraine, I predict, sadly, that the world is on the verge of serious food shortages. In developing countries, especially, we could be looking at a literal famine in late 2022. That’s because Ukraine and Russia together supply roughly one-quarter of the world’s wheat. Every year, 32 million hectares are cultivated within the Ukrainian border. The area has long been known as the “breadbasket of Europe” for this very reason. At the same time, the sudden supply shock for natural gas is having knock-on effects on agriculture. Fertilizer, a key component to promoting soil health, requires inputs like urea and ammonia. Both molecules are derived from natural gas and can account for 40–70% of the cost to produce agricultural fertilizers. As natural gas soars, the price of fertilizer has gone vertical. The Green Markets Fertilizer Index – which tracks a blend of global fertilizer prices – shows that the cost of fertilizer has soared 118% since this time last year. All of this suggests that the prices for agricultural products are about to go higher… perhaps much higher. And we can safely assume the value of food-producing land will rise as well. All three of these ideas are excellent places to start in this market environment. But it’s my last idea that I’d ask you to pay special attention to.

Turn to the Private Markets Investors are looking for something – anything – to help them meaningfully grow their wealth right now. This was the only topic on readers’ minds at the annual Legacy Investment Summit earlier this year. And here’s what I told them… My #1 recommendation to seek shelter from the storm is to turn away from public markets and look towards the private markets. During my presentation, I shared this graphic… It shows how much wealthy investors are allocating to private investments. [Chart] And what we see is that wealthy investors and family offices have nearly half of their portfolio in private investments. Endowment funds have more than half of their portfolios in private investments. And what exposure does the average retail investor have? Zero percent. That’s right – absolutely nothing. It may seem counterintuitive to invest in private companies during volatile times like this. After all, investing in private investments is not a traditionally conservative strategy. As an angel investor, I can tell you that private investing is not for the faint of heart. Many private investments will deliver small returns to investors, while others will fail altogether. But there are a handful that will deliver truly life-changing returns. And it is this last group – the “home run” investments – that can make an entire portfolio. It’s a form of asymmetric investing that only requires small amounts of capital for the potential to see outsized returns. And because these investments are not buffeted by the daily gyrations of equity markets, I view them as the purest form of “set it and forget it” investing. They are the best way I know how to build generational wealth in the years ahead. That’s why tomorrow, at 8 p.m. ET, I’m hosting [a special investing event]( to share my favorite ideas in the private markets right now. I hope readers can make the time to attend. Even if you’ve never been interested in private investing, I’d encourage you to attend. I believe the analysis shared there will be well worth your time.
