2) create inflation
During the first stage of currency devaluation (which we are in now), stocks and real estate will rise.
During the second stage, of inflation, stocks will stall and real estate will continue to rise.

It’s merely what anyone would do: we tend to favor ideas that have worked FOR US in the past, assuming that what’s good for us will be good for everyone.
