I'm looking at my portfolio today and realized I'm about evenly split with a 50/50 mix of TIAA Traditional and Vanguard Total Bond Market/TIPS inflation protected bonds.
TIAA Traditional is a unique investment, but I've always thought of it like a unique bond since it has an income minimum guarantee. Anyhow, it occurred to me I might want to move more heavily into the TIAA, and sell a proportionate amount of the Vanguard bonds. Perhaps go 80% of my bond portfolio into TIAA.
I'm not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to this part of my portfolio, so I'm seeking opinions. What do you think, Dear Reader?
