Barron's "Income Investing" column, titled, "Inflation and Taxes Are Eating Into Your Savings. What You Can Do About It," contained the same error as a Wall Street Journal piece from last week -- it compared the current yield on money funds with the inflation rate over the past year. Columnist Randall Forsynth writes, "Congratulations, savers. Your money-market fund is now yielding more than inflation, if only by a hair. But after paying taxes on your money fund's earnings, you're still behind the inflation bogey. What to do? 'Nothing' seems to be the answer from those individuals who keep $3 trillion stashed in money funds yielding about 3.5%, 10 basis points more than the 3.4% increase in the consumer price index in the latest 12 months, but less than that after rendering unto Uncle Sam." (Crane Data Note: The latest money fund yield would be more appropriately compared with the latest month's inflation reading, which is 1.2% annualized.)
