I just took a look at the real yield curve for today and noticed we hit 2.5% on the 20-year TIPS. That's the rate at which I start thinking about buying TIPS since that's the historical average real yield for long-term treasuries.
But rates seem to still be trending up, so I'm not buying yet. I wonder how high we'll go. I'd be happy to lock in some 3% TIPS, and I'd be jumping for joy if we hit 4% again.
