The main reason I-bonds are paying so well is due to the increase in gas prices (thus inflation) so energy costs are taken into account. That doesn’t make sense.

The fed has been consistently lying about the rate of inflation. they don't consider housing or energy costs when calculating inflation. just useless stuff like food which is a fraction of our expenditure. As the dollar continues its slide[it maybe strengthening right now, but its is a temporary thing. wait till after christmas] & the Asian countries will be forced to revalue their currencies, the stuff we import from there will become a lot more expensive.
