Earlier this year, I moved a huge chunk of my 401(k) to an "inflation-protected securities" fund in a simplistic desire to escape equities, without knowing what the fund actually was. Yeah, not too smart.
So...having luckboxed into a nice return thus far, I'm wondering: 1) Why have inflation-protected securities done so well this year? 2) Which economic indicator(s) would portend a downturn in their value? I tried reading the Wikipedia entry on TIPS and couldn't get past the first few sentences. Thanks for all your great insights in this thread! |
