Hedge-fund manager calls TIPS a bargain yielding inflation plus 3%

The discussion centers on how TIPS are positioned to provide inflation protection along with an additional 3% annual return.

MarketWatch reports that hedge-fund manager Bob Elliott has drawn attention to TIPS as a potential “generational buying opportunity.”

The focus of the segment is that TIPS are framed as offering inflation protection plus a 3% a year return.

According to MarketWatch, the buzz around the trade is tied to Elliott’s view that the level of TIPS is attractive relative to their inflation-linked payoff.
