no basically it's true, but you have to exclude the assets which are cash ...linked. obviously bonds, which are just future cash, but also banks, insurance companies, anyone who's locked in a price for something they have to deliver years in the future
-
on the flip side, anyone who's heavily levered/indebted is effectively short cash and probably golden it's an empirical question and you can also just look at how different assets performed vs inflation in the past, but the sample size of de/inflation *cycles* is just really low

Only inasmuch as different assets derive value from fixed vs adjustable cash flows. Real estate decent hedge because you can raise rents. Bonds terribad because you’ve agreed on nominal amounts beforehand.

I think his point is that an argument that applies to pretty much everything isn't worth mentioning for anything. It's like that brand of honey that slaps "fat free!" on their labels when all honey is fat free.
