About iShares TIPS Bond ETF (TIP)

The iShares TIPS Bond ETF (TIP) is an exchange-traded fund that seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of inflation-protected U.S. Treasury bonds. TIP's objective is to provide investors with a low-cost and efficient way to gain exposure to U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). These bonds are designed to provide a hedge against inflation by adjusting their principal value based on changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

With a focus on preserving purchasing power, TIP offers investors a way to potentially mitigate the impact of inflation on their bond investments. By investing in TIPS, investors can benefit from the interest payments and potential principal appreciation that comes from inflation indexing. TIP's portfolio is designed to closely replicate the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. TIPS index, which includes a diverse range of TIPS with various maturities.
