10 Stocks That Can Beat Inflation

By Jeremy Bowman - Aug 19, 2022 at 7:00 AM
Inflation chart

How inflation wrecked the market

2022's been a rough year for investors. Though stocks have shown signs of life lately, the S&P 500 is still down 10% year to date, and inflation is the major reason why.

With consumer prices rising faster than they have in 40 years, the Federal Reserve has begun hiking interest rates as fast as it has in a generation. Stocks generally fall when interest rates rise since higher rates make bonds more appealing and make future earnings worth less as money loses its value faster.

More directly, inflation also impacts certain companies, especially those in industrials and consumer goods. Not every stock is vulnerable to inflation, however. Keep reading to see 10 stocks that can beat inflation.
