Nothing exactly like it but TIPS are Treasury Inflation Protected Securities.

Probably best to buy them in a fund due to their complexities. Vanguard and Fidelity both have funds for them.

They are lagging or get less of a return. The TIPS I have are yielding 6.25% right now. Still a fine place to park if you think the market might dump more or go sideways. Just pay attention to when the dividend pays and don’t sell before that

Thanks for the extra details! What do you think of buying a TIPS fund instead of purchasing TIPS directly?
