This strategy aims to protect against eroding cash value, as low-yield savings accounts (e.g., 0.01% APY) fail to keep pace with rising consumer prices, significantly squeezing household budgets."

# Advisors turn to I-bonds and TIPS as inflation hits 3.8%

Inflation's three-year high: Consumer prices rose 3.8% year over year, outpacing many savings rates and squeezing household budgets. Shift to inflation hedges: Advisors recommend I-bonds, TIPS, Treasury bills, and money markets to protect against eroding cash value. Savings account risk: Funds in accounts earning 0.01% APY lose significant purchasing power when inflation remains elevated.
