I am hopeful for some thoughts / guidance regarding an initial TIPS purchase for a ladder. While I have a general understanding of how TIPS work, the ability to analyze the following is just out of my reach (though I am not afraid of the math if I better understood the process).
I am beginning to fund a 20 Year ladder (2026 - 2045), and my first purchase is to cover the four years from 2034 - 2037. I have unfortunately missed out on the January 2024 auction / new issue of 10 Year TIPS, and am now trying to determine what might now make the most sense - the March or May re-openings, or the July new issue.
Or possibly the secondary market?
Though this is my first post I have spent many hours devouring the insights presented here... thanks to all!
