In his July 2025 Market Commentary, Atlas Capital Advisors Chief Investment Officer Ken Frier explains why Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) have become one of the most compelling retirement investments in today’s market.

With long-term TIPS yields at record highs, Ken outlines how retirees could support a 4.8% starting annual spending rate over 30 years—without the risk of running out of money. He also compares TIPS to U.S. stocks, showing how expected returns have nearly converged, with TIPS having far less volatility and downside risk than stocks.

Key topics include:

  • Why TIPS are the lowest-risk retirement asset today
  • How TIPS yields have reached new highs in 2025
  • How greater use of TIPS can permit higher spending rates for retirees
  • Why TIPS may now rival stocks in long-term return potential

Watch to learn how Atlas Capital Advisors is evaluating this shift—and what it could mean for your long-term investment strategy.
