Dinar Posted January 13 Posted January 13 Does anyone know of any ETF that can allow me to invest in US TIPS with maturity of 20 years or more? I only found LTPZ but that one is 15 years. Thank you.

If you need a longer TIPS bond maybe just buy the bond itself

I think TIPS at 2.6% real yield on 20-30 paper is interesting. If and when real TIPS yield hit 3%, I will start buying calls on the them betting that real yields will decline. At 4% real yield, I would have no problem having 20-40% of my portfolio in them (not call options, but actual underlying.) Certainly 50%+ of retirement funds.

I think this is a long way of saying you will never end up taking a position in this. If you think a 2.6% real yield is interesting and want to place a bet, the time to do that is now. I highly doubt you are going to get an opportunity to put the trade on at 3%.

I'm just an amateur, but I have to say I agree, this reminds me of the sentiment every time I start thinking about buying railroads. They always seem to bottom out about 5-10% higher than my target backup the truck price. I recently opened a position in CP under this premise...wasn't quite there but it seems to never hit the range I want. 2.6% on TIPs does seem attractive for retirement accounts.
