Quote from Commodities1 :
It should not. The rates should be close. It should be slightly different because of

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.
I'm checking on CUSIP 912796Y37 (matured at 08/03) with two brokerage accounts.
The first one shows a price of $98.98 with a discount or yield of 4.268%
The second one shows a price of $98.79 with a yield of 5.19%.
Isn't that a wide gap?

The NASA FCU requires uploading a scanned copy of ID, which other institutions don't.
For those who have opened accounts with them, are you fine with exposing your identity information?

The $98.98 price is just off (or it is marked up significantly). What brokerage did you get this one from?

I am looking at the depth of book which shows all bids and offers. You should be able to buy this CUSIP for $98.790 which will yield you 5.198% if you hold it to maturity (8/3/2023). It's not callable so you will get that yield.

As if your ID isn't already exposed? It's impossible for this to not already be the case.

Quote from WineWomenSong :
Where do you see Munis at 4pct? The FCU comparison with treasuries does not take into account that treasuries are not subject to state and local tax. Therefore in some cases treasuries with same tax comparison with FCU yield more than 6pct.
State taxes (ex NY and CA) are pretty low so typically not take into account - but if you do that calculation too - which is simple enough. Federal rates are much higher so that is why munis are valued on an after tax basis. Both Interactive Brokers and Fidelity have munis yielding 4%. Here is a AAA maturing in 3 weeks that is at 4% - 239019R38

5.5% yearly return. You won't get 5.5% of the $15k.

Also want to add that if you have kids or business entity, then you qualify for more than your own 10k/year I-bond limit. I did this for my LLC, so 20k invested. Locked in 9.625% back in Oct of 2022. Rates change every 6 months depending on inflation.
Also note if you cash in your I bond before 5 years you pay 3 months interest penay

Thanks for the good info in this thread. I went into a local citizens bank today and opened the 10-month CD at 5.5% yield. Incoming wire transfers are free at citizens. The only catch here, is that you must also open a checking account and keep $25 minimum in the account to avoid any fees. Also, they told me that there is an inactivity fee if there is no activity in the checking account for one year, so just an FYI. I plan on linking the checking account via ACH to my GS account and transfer all the money out when the CD matures.

This CD rate at citizens is an in branch only offer, you will not find it on their website. When you go into one of their branches, it is posted everywhere. It shows that the offer expires on the 31st of this month, yet they can pull the offer at any time.

Some places (Cap One) have actually asked me to *email* DL and passport. I declined.
