Adjustment Securities

• I Bonds Versus Tips: Should Individual Investors Prefer One to the Other?

Both TIPS and Series I Bonds are adjusted for inflation, offering a real rate and an inflation adjustment. The inflation adjustment is the same on both securities, but the real portion of the interest rate on TIPS is generally much higher. Despite I Bonds' less attractive real rate, they have several features that add to their value. They may be redeemed before maturity, at par value plus accrued interest, eliminating price risk. In addition, taxes may be deferred until redemption. We estimate the value of these two features, and find that they are substantial and could potentially offset the lower real rate of I Bonds.

• The U.S. Foreclosure Crisis: A Two-Pronged Assault On the U.S. Economy

The U.S. mortgage loan foreclosure crisis has been called "the worst financial crisis since the great depression." There are two distinct channels of influence of the subprime problem. The first is the rise in foreclosures that affects homeowners and the real estate industry most directly. The second channel is financial, flowing from the effects on lenders' financial viability and on financial markets. The timing of developments in these two channels will determine how fast markets work through these problems and restore stability and growth to the nation's housing and financial markets. The problem is rooted in the housing market, and this market is likely to be very slow to adjust. It takes time for good mortgages to go bad and to then move through to the end of the foreclosure proce...
