Hello syc ,
What would be circumstances or a scenario in which a TIPS fund would be useful?
For someone who does not want to hold individual bonds but does want to own bonds as an addition to their portfolio. As already discussed the funds can be affected in value by rising interest rates, but not as much as nominal bond funds. It is necessary to reinvest the monthly dividends in a TIPS fund and a shorter duration fund is recommended.
