The interest to be earned for $20k for this CD is approx. $920. Then you will need to deduct federal and state taxes from $920. Tax amounts depend on your tax brackets. For simplicity, let's use 25% for federal and 9% for state. So your final earned interest will be:


$920 - ($920 x (25% + 9%)) = $607.2

You can use above example to plug in your real tax bracket percentages to get your own number. It's a bit difficult to show the calculation of interest on here but you can find interest calculator on web.
I think by February-March next year we may see peak in interest rates being offered by banks. I would not advise to lock money for long term yet.
I don't have a dog in the race here but out of curiosity I checked the website at the OP's link:

Quote from findjoe :
Check out First Horizons offerings right now. Just did 5.38% apy high yield savings compounds monthly… and I think they have a promotional 11 month CD at 5.5 apy.

High yield savings typically don't lock up your money and some will lock the rate. You can sometimes negotiate the rate lock with a bank as well.

Good luck fighting inflation everyone!
Please post a link to the 5.38 savings. I was unable to find it. Thanks.

Confused why this is a deal. There are other banks offering over 5% right now on 12 mo CDs. If you were really in the 12 mo CD market, wouldn't you just go for the highest rate?

Did you look at the date it was posted?

For folks suggesting to get a high yield CD from a brokerage, be aware that most of the high yielding ones are callable CDs meaning the bank can decide to give you back your money and your interest in the future before the CD matures; this usually means if interest rates start to fall.

Also, it's much harder to break a CD from a brokerage than a bank. You basically have to try and sell it on the brokerage marketplace and price it low enough (loss to you) to convince someone to buy it from you.

If you can put away the money for the duration and can find a good non callable CD, the 1-2 year yields from the brokerage usually beat most of the ones from banks - and you don't have to open a bunch of accounts and transfer money to them.

A brokered CD at Vanguard for 13 months is at 5.5%; albeit you need to open a brokerage account but if you already invest with them, this is a no brainer. I also believe Citizens is also offering a 5.5% CD if you are "Quest" or higher balances customer.

Why sign up for this CD when CIT is already offering a no penalty 11 month CD at a higher rate? https://www.cit.com/cit-bank/bank...penalty-cd

Bank CD rates from Fidelity are better than 5% from 3 months to 5 years. You're getting ripped off buying CDs from a bank.

5.26% 52 week T-bill rate and no state tax. If your state rate is 2% the equivalent yield is 5.37%.

Daily Treasury Bill Rates [treasury.gov]
Thanks, going to look into this....but am I reading this chart correctly that currently the 52 week actually has the worst rate of all the other weeks (4,8,13,17,26)? thanks

That is false! I am heavily invested in CDs from a brokerage and NONE are callable. Plus there are great rates on 3,6,9 month CDs. And if you are going to need the money in the foreseeable future, you should consider a high yield savings account, not a CD.

Another BANK CD rate on Slick Deals ? Get that CRAP outta here ?!?! You can throw a stone and find 5% CDs at all sorts of terms and rates locally wherever you are. Try a NON-PROFIT credit union near you, you know the financial institutions that don't fail and need constant bail outs by your tax payer dollars.
