"10Y breakeven shorts with 0.8 beta"
"10Y breakeven shorts with long 80% nominal to eliminate long duration bias"
Are the above two the same, what do they mean?

2$\begingroup$ "breakeven long": you are long TIPS and short nominal Treasuries, you profit if the breakeven inflation rate increases (hence the name). "breakeven short": you are short TIPS and long nominal treasuries. 0.8 or 80% refers to how much of the nominal bonds you have for each TIPS. $\endgroup$– Alex CDec 19, 2019 at 2:25
