they also have 4.3% for 2 years and 4.1% for 5 years. why would anyone want to tie their money up longer for less return? im guessing they expect rates to come down long term

For 11 months, that’s a a very good rate on a non-brokered CD (at present).

I don’t like most of their CDs due to the 6 month penalty on early withdrawal, but it’s only 3 months on their CD <12 months.

I put ~150k in yesterday pulling funds from a low interest CD and high-yield savings, so limit is above that. It funded instantly. I would limit to 250k or 500k if joint owner on it for all funds with them for FDIC purposes.

There is an option to open the CD account in the mobile app. I’m probably going to open one today, just trying to decide how much I want to move.

I’ve grabbed 3 and 5 year CDs at Ally for 4.3% to hedge against lower rates in the future, but definitely loading up on the short term 5% yield.

4% money market with access to money without restriction vs. 5% CD locked in for period of time.

They’re literally telling you…

1 year CDs are a solid cash alternative, but they’re an awful way to build any real nest egg. I realize they’re probably not being used that way on the Money Talk, thankfully.

Damnit. I just put some of the kids savings into 4.5% 9 month CDs at Hancock Whitney.

It always humors me, the people who just don't seem to get it. I've loved the market being down. I've been able to invest at a significant discount over the last year or so.

The money in my brokerage account would have performed better in a 4% cd for the last three years. I am dumping chase and moving cash to cap one the rates are too good to pass up

Sure. And if we all knew where the tops and bottoms would be, we would all billionaires by now. Unfortunately, we don’t have the faintest idea.
