Bank OZK is offering a 13 month CD at a 5.20% APY! This seems to be one of the best rates available from a known, and fairly large, regional bank.

One year T-bills are 5.2% as well.. why not go with that? For most people, not paying state tax means you'll come ahead buying treasuries instead of CDs and they are easy to purchase through a broker like Fidelity.

Mainly because people are financially stupid. T-bills make more sense in almost every instance right now.

It's typically 3 months for 18 month CDs or shorter at the banks I hold CDs with. Not 100% sure for bank of the ozark though. An old news article from bank of the ozarks CD advertisement for a 13 month CD says this "According CSR, the Early Withdrawal Penalty is six months interest." Do not know if the penalty is still the same, but it probably is. It was from a DMN article from '16.
