inflation picking up in india and the rest of the world as well

in india , the price of cooking oil has nearly doubled

the price of roadside tea has gone up from 10 inr to 12 inr – a hike of nearly 20 %

the price of milk has gone up from inr 48 to inr 56 per litre – a hike of 8/48 = 17 %

bananas have gone up from 40 inr to 80 inr – nearly 100 % hike

the reason – war in ukraine and some hoarding as well ( allegedly )

so is this the right time to be in inflation hedging tools – gold and silver ?
