Think Inflation Is Coming? These 2 Stocks Can Thrive Anyway

While the inflation rate hasn't reached crisis levels since the early 1980s, the rising cost of select consumer items lately (like gasoline), as well as the massive increase in federal spending, has concerned some Americans that the rate may finally be on the rise. Whether or not it appears, preparation by investors for increased inflation can bring some peace of mind, and holding stocks such as Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) and Chevron (NYSE: CVX) can protect your portfolio. Amazon also cuts costs by investing in few physical stores and performing many of its own deliveries.
