Do you understand bonds? Stocks get all the attention from the media. You hear about how the stock market does every day. Bonds are lucky to get a mention in one sentence. There are many books and websites about investing in the stock market. There are far fewer about investing in bonds. I often hear people say bonds are hard to understand. They shouldn't be. Come join me on a journey into the world of bonds. Let's explore together. The first project of this website is a tutorial for Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS). Some of the articles were originally posted on my blog The Finance Buff. After I'm done with TIPS, I will start from bond basics and write everything an investor would want to know about bonds. If you find these articles helpful, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed or subscribe by e-mail and get new articles automatically delivered to you as soon as it's posted. |

The Treasury Department held its quarterly refunding meeting earlier this month. The policy statement released after the meeting announced they will add two more 10-year TIPS reopening auctions. Together with the 5-year and 30-year auctions, there will be total of ten auctions in a year. Except in June and December, there will be one TIPS auction every month. I updated the auction schedule article with the new schedule. |
