Those rates can drop at any time, so the 12-month guarantee might be worth it in some cases

This is better than brokered CDs, which isn't common. Seems like a great CD. Any perks of banking w Marcus?

I have another Marcus 10 month CD @ 5.05% that matures shortly. Perhaps I'll roll it over.

Yeah, 180 days of interest, so money is pretty much locked in for me as well. Not complaining at 5.5% interrst though.

Their app is extremely easy to use. I have a savings account with them also and I get 4.5% on that account. They seem to have some of the best rates all around.

I agree with the 5% but I'm not seeing very many at 5.5% or higher

T-Bills are still mostly over 5%, and closer to or over 6% if you live in a high tax state (no state tax on T-bills), and are pretty much liquid.

Nice find!

If you are considering CD, remember they usually have a penalty for early withdrawal. I consider not as liquid as a savings account. So, if you might need the money before maturity, a savings account may be better. Finally, the interest from a CD or a savings account are taxable by state & local governments. If your state does not have an income tax, then this is not a consideration.

Alternatively, many people in the past have suggested money market funds or t-bills. The Vanguard Treasury Money Market Fund has a 5.29% yield, and most of the dividend/interest is exempt by states. T-bills offer approximately 5.4% return and are full exempt by state governments. Note, these investments are not FDIC insured but are backed by the US Gov't. CDs & savings accounts are insured.

This could be considered spam, since SD is owned by Goldman Sachs.
