The TIPS option was offered to me after I retired; it would have been a great mechanism to dollar-cost average every month. That is the best way to build up the TIPS investment, imo.
Thanks for your chart [now in iBox] and I revised my iBox chart to coincide with your colors and set-up near the bottom of the charts for the $USD [red] and TIP [green]. This inverse relationship between the two are much more apparent when viewed next to each other and as an overlay.
I have to make a decision to move more money into TIPS. Due to the possibility of quantitative easement #3, it would behoove me to move more funds before the dollar really declines.
You and giff have been a great help to me on other boards with your charts and I finally realize that I have to seriously study charting.
So much to do.
