Inflation is already happening here, look at food + housing + energy prices

See all crypto currency prices vs USD lately. People are hedging their bets against inflation using non-fiat currencies.

Buying gold or other precious metals might help, also investing in real estate maybe, but only residential and in areas with low volatility, i.e. not Manhattan. It's a tough call because once inflation really starts to ramp up it can take on a life of its own.

Recently switched jobs and need advice on 401K.

1) I have both Roth and traditional 401K. Can't change traditional 401K to Traditional IRA as I backdoor Roth and it complicates things.
2) does it make sense to move Roth 401 to Roth IRA to save on fees / have more options?
3) what would you invest in?

Current allocation:
FID 500 index (FXAIX): 58%,
FID Target 2055: 26%,
FID growth CO K6 (FGKFX): 12%,
FID bond - 4%
