For me in my 401K, TIPS is the only alternative to provide me inflation protection.
I try to analyze the Fed's actions and yesterday Bernanke indicated QE2 will cease at the end of June. But I expect another quantitative easy should the economy go into decline.
BUT if the economy goes into decline, there might be an associated deflation.
I'm in a total quandary about the future. For me, I'm holding. For you, if you had a great run in TIPS over the past three years, you could move a portion out of TIPS at this point.
Long term the dollar is toast and inflation will dominate, imo. That's why I will continue have a core holding in TIPS.
It's not an easy decision and the charts say to take profits.
Good luck
