TIPS

[ValueMaven]

TIPS finally offer interesting yields.  After offering negative real-yields for the past several years, the 5Yr TIP has a REAL YIELD of 1.13% - the whole real curve is now offering 1%+ even 30yrs out.  The TIP ETF for example is down about -10% YTD, and down $20 from its high earlier in the year.  You are now finally getting some very attractive/cash alternatives at the current prices.  I am not a TIPS expert - so please shoot this thesis down.

The 20 year duration + TIPS are now at the highest level for quite some time. I think they are interesting  in tax deferred accounts . I bought some 2044 TIPS and LTPZ (15 year duration TIPS ETF) . I think the sweet spot is 15-20 year duration.

 

You can get some inflation adjusted real 2.5-3% yield here.
