I think CMBs are issued a lot less frequently with shorter maturity periods when the gov needs quick money.

Buy on margin.... move in money at the same time. It will settle before you get charged any fees.

You will lose the state tax exemption if you buy treasury within an IRA. Look at brokered CD rates instead.

Make sure you are buying New Issues. It's under "Fixed Income Bonds CD". Sounds like you are buying bond on the secondary market.

I saw your previous post. You can not buy CMB at TreasuryDirect. It has to be at a broker, like Fidelity or Vanguard.

Two genuine questions:
1. Could the actual yield be lower than expected yield?
2. Are the tax implications the same whether you buy it on Fidelity or through TreasuryDirect?
