Or you can buy a short-term treasury ETF like SGOV instead, get 5.3% of yield, interest is exempt from state income tax, and way more liquid.
Do not do what this guy says. Get a financial advisor if you're considering it. Do not get you financial advice from SD. Good luck.
I've never had any issues. I've had a checking, savings, and invest account with them for 6 years now.

Quote from Siwy12 :
if you look at historical charts - stock markets typically crash AFTER the Fed starts lowering rates back down... lowering rates is an admission that economy is in bad shape...
Another way to look at it is that the feds see the sign of a recession and then lowers rates, which causes the market to react.

This guy is correct. He just saved you from getting charged fees by a low IQ advisor. T Bills or ETF's are good options. Easy stuff here.

TreasuryDirect is a perfectly fine alternative, I use it myself for Series I bonds. It's just that some find the website really clunky, and if you already have a brokerage account somewhere, buying an ETF like SGOV is as easy as it gets.
I read somewhere that we can buy I Bonds only using Tax refund Money. Do you know we can buy I Bonds like T Bills ?

You have read the wrong stuff. I-bonds can be purchased with non-tax return money. I-bonds and T-bills are separate vessels. You can buy T bills and I bonds on US Treasury site

Quote from MaroonEducation852 :
Through work, I had a financial advisor who managed one of me retirement accounts. Every month I would receive a statement of what he bought and sold and at the end of the year, the firm always sent me a nice box of chocolates. After a number of years, I switched jobs and looked closely at the numbers. During all that time, I had made almost nothing on the invested money while he was being paid a fee every time he moved the money around. Literally 10 years resulted in minimal profit. I asked him not to manage my money anymore and simply moved it to an index fund. Over the last few years made 4x what he brought in over 10 years and that includes the crappy market during covid that we endured. I'm sure there are good Advisors out there but there are also plenty of them who just use your money to create their own paycheck.

Ouch. Sorry for your loss

Fidelity has brokered CD's going for 5.7% (one year). The bank is JP Morgan Chase but that doesn't really matter as they are all insured. I have an account and it takes me one minute to click on the fixed income section and buy the CD. No paperwork to fill out of course if you already have a Fidelity account.

Hi, I don't have fidelity but see this one year callable CD on my brokerage CD page.
Is this the same one? The one I see is callable. Almost opened a fidelity account and wonder if they sell different products there that are only for Fidelity. Thanks!
.
JPMORGAN CHASE BANK (OH)
1 YEAR, Callable, Next Call 03-29-2024 @ 100.000
CUSIP: 46656MQE4

Quite a few non callable CDs from big banks at 5.5% from 6 months to 18 months. 5.350 for 2 years and so on.

Monday auction for 1 year Treasuries should be close to 5.5% which is way better for people in high state and local tax areas unless you are buying in a retirement account where everything ends up being taxed at the same rate.

That's the only CD from Fidelity's list that is callable. The others listed (granted, at a lower interest rate) are not callable.

also, do you mind explaining what this two differs? I don't understand the coupon column but both have similar yields, I'm not sure why the bottom one says NOTE, but only expires in 6 months. The filter is for 6 months treasuries. TIA

Attachment 14332273
Callable means the issuer can cancel your CD whenever they want and pay you whatever was earned up to that point. For example, if a 12-mo. callable CD is paying 6% (I know that's high, but using as an example for easy math), then your $10k investment should get you $600 in 1 yr. Let's say they call your CD after 6 months. They're basically returning the $10k to you and the $300 earned up to that point.
