50 year cycle is damn near impossible to predict

50 years is so long that the only thing I would consider would be some type of hard assets. Gold, collectibles would be the only type of investments that have any chance of a fifty year cycle. Paper money, even now, is looking shaky. Trying to forecast 50 years out is pretty difficult. Look back 50 years and see what would have worked best, discounted for inflation. The top equities 50 years ago like GM, Kodak and many others are, for all practical purposes, gone. Even the Banks that were powerful 50 years ago are also either merged or bankrupt so I would be careful where I put the investments, not just the choice.
