I bond Investors: It's Time To Buy
Mar. 08, 2020 6:42 PM ETTIP27 Comments
Summary
Series I Savings Bonds purchased through April 30 will have a permanent "real yield" of 0.2%, well above TIPS yields of any maturity.
I Bonds carry many benefits over TIPS, including tax-deferred interest and rock-solid deflation protection.
Another Savings Bond, the EE Bond, is also very attractive under current terms, offering a 3.5% return for anyone who can hold it 20 years.
