If inflation is your worry than buy Series I bonds as they are inflation protected. Stocks are not hedges against inflation. Inflation is also slowing down and interest rates are going up which means rates on the bonds are going up which will likely hurt stock yields for the future. People tend to realize from 2012-2020 was the biggest bull run in history and one of the drivers was 0% interest rates. The new target for interest rates is going to 5% which is the highest its been in 20 years.
