YTD Returns as of 08/31/2011

Inflation-Protect Sec Inv VIPSX 10.33%
Inflation-Protect Sec Adm VAIPX 10.39%

GNMA Fund Investor Shares VFIIX 6.16%

REIT Index Fund Adm VGSLX 5.83%

Total Bond Mkt Index Inv VBMFX 5.62%

I believe DTLNX is up about 8% YTD. Not as good as buying TIPS but better than Total bond or GNMA.

Pimco PTSAX is up about 3.5%

TIPS seem to love stagflation. I took some profits and sold on one TIPS I bought earlier this year after it was up 18% in six months!

Put some cash into VGSLX with my vanguard IRA money and into VNQ at Fidelity in my roth and regular IRAs there when the market was perhaps close to its low for the year... I hope.
