1. Zero Coupon (3 mo) T-bills are yielding 5.2% (Cusip: 912796XY0). You can ladder these and get up to the 9 mos if you want. The extra 0.3% at NASA (assume $10k deposit) is worth $22.
2. Munis - I am seeing Munis (around 9 mos expiration) yielding 4% - these are tax exempt, so 4% / (1-your tax rate) to get after tax yield. These 4% therefore are close to 6%, but there is some risk in munis.
3. Is it worth it - so for each 0.5% increase in yield on a CD (assume you deposit $10k), you get an extra $37. If your bank has a 5% CD and you go through the hassle (I am assuming it is a hassle) to open a new account to get the 5.5%, is the extra $37 worth it to you. That is the real qs.
Just my $0.02. Peace

1. something called "on the run" and "off the run"
2. bid-ask spread offered by the dealer.
Look at the CUSIP I posted and let me know what rate you see. I can then tell you what is going on. Alternatively, give me a CUSIP you see with the rate and I will check.
The seminole work is in a book by Fabozzi.
But Fidelity and other brokerage firms should offer a good lesson and their platform is easy to use. Just find the timeframe you want, pick the highest "yield to worst" and buy it. Yield to worst basically means, if the bind is called or something else like that, what is the worst yield you will get.
Going to link the Fidelity page here but not sure if it will work but check it out.
