I was looking to add commodities to my allocation, though all of commodity funds I found have absurdly high fees/expense ratios. So, I was thinking about just increasing my allocation to TIPs. I would think that the two correlate pretty highly in the long-run.
I think that holding REITs, Commodities, and TIPs are an attempt to hedge inflation. What are the added benefits to holding REITs vs Commodities vs TIPs? Diversification? REITs and TIPs pay out a current income stream and Commodities do not. I think that people like the idea of investing in tangible assets as well.
Any thoughts on this?
