    Switching to TIPS

    Thinking about selling off my AGGU since it doesn't seem to be doing much & inflation is prob gonna hit more and more. Maybe put some of that money into my IWDA and my reduce my bonds to 10% for a while maybe reinvest it into TIPS something like IDTP or maybe soemthing similar but a bit cheaper 🤣. Any value in this strategy?

    Been doing research & trying to learn more about investing long term, trying to keep to a simple strategy with just a few choice products but also want to be smart with basic market changes like inflation.

    At least it can be a conversation starter...😅

    To start the conversation - very few if any broad bond ETFs delivery any sort of yield or total return to beat inflation at the moment. Or am I missing something?

    And what ndt says ...
