About 5 Year TIPS Yield
What it measures
The 5-year TIPS yield (FRED series WFII5) is the weekly average real yield on Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities at the 5-year constant maturity. Because TIPS principal adjusts with the Consumer Price Index, the quoted yield represents compensation above realized inflation. The Treasury derives the series from secondary market quotes and it appears on the Federal Reserve H.15 release.
Why it matters
The 5-year real yield is a direct market reading of medium-term inflation-adjusted borrowing costs, a key input to how restrictive monetary policy actually is. Subtracting it from the nominal 5-year yield produces the 5-year breakeven inflation rate, one of the most watched gauges of inflation expectations. Real yields also drive valuations of gold and long-duration equities.
How to read it
Positive and rising real yields indicate genuinely tightening financial conditions; deeply negative readings, seen after 2008 and again in 2020-2021, indicate strong stimulus or intense safe-asset demand. The 5-year TIPS market is less liquid than nominals, so a portion of the yield reflects a liquidity premium, and CPI-seasonality plus indexation lags can distort short windows.
