Hi,

How would you invest, in the long run, under such conditions ?

Under such conditions I would invest in gold. Buy GLD and hold onto
it.

But it's also true (as PeterL points out, implicitly, in his reply)
that 'such conditions' may not materialize, so you should diversify
with a ordinary stock fund.

Actually the best strategy --one that really works, but doesn't get
that much press, though it's practiced by a lot of people who are very
wealthy--is to make a ton of money, stuff it in many different buckets
(real estate, cash, stocks, bonds, collectibles, gold), and then
you're set no matter what happens. Of course easier said than done, I
grant you.
