Subject: Re: TIPS?
Frankly, with all the chaos and questionable finance policy due to the Felon, I wouldn't invest in anything tied to the US government. Not bonds, TIPS, or nothin'. The Felon and Musk (and their various cronies) are too erratic and unpredictable. They could decide that they're canceling all the bonds**, and "sucks to be you, we're keeping the money".

Don't think there's much chance of that; it would crash the global financial markets.

How they measure inflation *could* be manipulated in an unfavorable way for the TIPS holder, I guess.
