Start hereIf you hold I bonds for five years or longer you will get the full interest when you redeem them. As of May 1, 2023, there are 236 I bonds that are older than five years. These are the I bonds purchased from September 1998 through April 2018, the five year mark as of May 2023. Of these 236 I bonds, 152 will provide a real return if you redeem them in May. In other words, 152 of these I bonds have grown in their values to exceed their inflation-adjusted purchase prices and the remaining 84 are lagging behind inflation.
For I bonds purchased each month starting from September 1998 through April 2018, the chart below shows how much the bonds had grown in values compared to the growth in inflation for the same period. The variance shown in the graph is the difference between the bond value and the inflation-adjusted purchase price on 5/1/2023 as a percentage of the inflation-adjusted purchase price. So it is the cumulative real growth from the purchase date through 5/1/2023 (not annual growth). As an example, as on 5/1/2023, a $10,000 I bond purchased in September 1998 had grown 125.49% over its inflation-adjusted purchase price.

The chart below shows the number of I bonds older than five years above and below their inflation-adjusted purchase prices for each month from January 2020 through May 2023. For example, in January 2020, there were 196 I bonds older than 5 years. Out of them, 193 had grown in their values to exceed their respective purchase prices adjusted for inflation, and only three were below those levels. On the other hand, in May 2023, 152 out of a total of 236 I bonds (64%) older than five years were above and 84 were below their inflation-adjusted purchase prices.
