Hi Kevin, for the amateurs here (maybe just me!): is IVOL a good way to play your TIPS theme?
Hi Ron,
IVOL isn't bad, but it's much more complicated than just a pure inflation trade.
It's TIPS (without the short nominal) plus
long steepener options.
Really, RINF is the true ETF that most closely moves with inflation breakevens. Also - buying TIPS and shorting IEF also works.
Hope that helps,
Take care,
Kev
