Inflation expectations and the Treasury market

Here's your TIP / Treasury market update.  Nothing extraordinary has happened in the Treasury / TIP market in the last few months.  As mentioned in my last entry the easy money has been made and now it is a lot harder (Tips v. nominals)

One item of note is the real TIPS yield is still relatively low as compared to the history of this data series with the last entry being a 1.42% real yield.  Not very exciting, eh?  The 10 year breakeven inflation rate is effectively where it was two years ago before the Financial panic hit (2.27%)
