VTIP: Well Placed As Fed Easing Risks Reigniting Inflation
VTIP ETF has returned 6.2% annualized since June 2023, outperforming cash due to the fall in real yields seen over this period. The ETF holds Treasury Inflation Protected Securities with an average maturity of 2.5 years, which have an average yield to maturity of 2.3%. Rising inflation pressures since the Fed's rate cut suggest VTIP will continue to outperform cash and bonds as inflation expectations recover.
