Please give this some serious thought before you let your knee-jerk reaction makes you say that it’s a retarded idea.
Premise 1) Safe drinking water will be in shorter supply
Premise 2) Land will be more expensive due to overpopulation/ land prices tend to rise.
Premise 3) oil prices will rise- this will increase transport costs and hence contribute to increase in food costs.
Not sure how tax cuts, higher debt (which we may not be able to repay), higher interest rates, will affect this trade.
I don’t want to buy gold because it’s inherently worthless and it has value because people give it value. Might as well buy crypto if I’m going down that road.
Hence, coconuts. However, it would be a difficult task to find a broker who will let me do this so might as well invest in wheat or soybeans or something. (Maybe avoid food produced in red state areas due to risk of tarrifs for China. But that’s only a short term problem so not really a concern).
The reason I took coconuts is that it has a high water content and might be seen as an alternative to drinking water in the future for developing areas/ areas with water crisis.
