I'd go nominal because I want a sure thing.

Curious about this recommendation versus an individual TIPS. I mean, I suppose it's possible that there is deflation within the next 1.5 years, but I don't think it's likely.

OTOH, if there's inflation, then the nominal is a "sure thing", but would have less purchasing power.

So, why not buy the inflation protection?
