Personal Investments • Re: TIPS Popularity

Maybe the certainty of a real yield is the basis for TIPS popularity?

Hello artbuc,
Yes I do believe the real yield is the basis for TIPS popularity.
But I have to ask you do you believe that TIPS will keep up with your own increasing costs over time as a reason to buy them?

Not really. I am well into retirement with a 60/40 AA. My fixed income comprises CD’s and individual nominal treasuries. I expect (hope?) equities will provide inflation protection. I would hold TIPS in my tIRA if I decide to buy some.
