Stocks, startup valuations, and crypto coins all fit the same trend as housing prices. Which investment vehicles in the US haven't skyrocketed in value the past 10 years?
goods inflation hasn't happened because these printed monies are not given to the average (or poor) person, but to financial institutions and large investment banks (in the form of low rates). The inflation of asset prices has indeed increased - and if the Feds continue down this course, the high prices for all assets will be the new norm.
