Twelve month CD rates are now above the current inflation rate and this hasn't been the case for over a decade. This is great news for retirees who can now invest in certificates of deposit and actually make money when inflation is taken into account.For the past decade, if you invested in certificates of deposit, you were probably getting a CD rate lower than the rate of inflation. You actually lost money by investing in either short term or long term certificates of deposit.For example, back in 2012, the highest 12 month CD rates were around 1.00 percent. The inflation rate in 2012 was 2.10 percent, giving you a negative return of 1.10 percent. Looking at it another way, for every $10,000 invested you actually lost $110.00. Read more...
Bank CD rates are higher this week as ten different banks increased CD rates on a wide range of CD products.

Several banks and credit unions increased CD rates this week and as a result, the best 12 month CD rates are now at 2.50 percent, a multi-year high. The last time 1 year CD rates were in the 2.50 percent range, was during the financial crisis in 2008/2009.When the financial crisis hit and caused the Great Recession, the Federal Reserve lowered the fed funds rate to nearly zero percent. This caused deposit rates to plummet to all-time lows the following four years. The best 12 month CD rates were actually under 1.00 percent at the low point in 2013.National average rates were even worse because of big brick and mortar banks were offering extremely low rates. At the lowest point during early 2013, MonitorBankRates.com reported 12 month CD rates averaged 0.68 percent. The FDIC's weekly national average rates were even lower, averaging a low of 0.20 percent. Read more...
The best online savings rates continue to move higher for May 2018 and heading into June 2018. For about a decade now, we have been talking about online savings rates and money market rates moving lower. Then finally, about 18 months ago, we started writing about interest rates moving higher.Online savings rates moved higher the past 18 months because the Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate six times. Those six rate increases totaled 1.50 percent, which brought the rate up to a targeted range of 1.50 percent to 1.75 percent. If you're wondering how the rate could only be at 1.50 percent when the total increases were 1.50 percent, that's because the rate was near zero percent!You also might be wondering what the fed funds rate and what does it have to do with online savings rates. The fed funds rate is the rate that banks and credit unions lend reserve balances to other institutions overnight. Banks and credit unions also set consumer rates for deposits and loans using the fed funds rate. Read more...
The highest CD rates continue to move higher as online banks increase rates again this week. 10 different online banks and credit unions increased a slew of CD rates over the past seven days. Rates on both short term and long term certificates of deposits moved higher.The biggest increases again this week were on shorter term certificates of deposit. This is because the Federal Reserve is driving short term rates higher. The Fed is scheduled to meet in the middle of next month and is widely expected to increase rates again.
We just reached a new milestone for 12 Month CD rates in 2017 as rates continue to inch higher. Crestmark Bank is now offering 12 Month CD rates at 1.80 percent. Just about two months ago, we reported a new high for 1 year CD rates at 1.70 percent. That new high was also from CrestMark Bank. You can read about that post Crestmark Bank Best Rate 1.70%.The uptrend for CD rates will continue for the rest of this year and into at least 2018 and it may last even longer if the economy doesn't fall into a recession. The Federal Open Market Committee meets this month and will more than likely increase the fed funds rate by 25 basis points.Another fed funds rate increase will put additional upward pressure on short term interest rates. 1 year CD rates could therefore hit 1.90 percent this month and 2.00 percent sometime early in 2018. Back in early October, we forecast 1 year CD rates hitting 2.00 percent as a result of another fed funds rate increase. Read more...
The Federal Reserve wrapped up their two day meeting yesterday and decided to keep the fed rates unchanged. The Fed was expected to stand pat on rates during the September meeting.

On September 5th, we reported the top 1 year CD rate increased to 1.60 percent and now the top 1 year rate is at 1.65 percent.We are still predicting 1 year CD rates will hit a high of 1.75 percent by the end of 2017 but only if the Fed increases the fed funds rate once more this year. You can see a list of the best 1 year CD rates listed below. Read more...

CD rates continue to move higher this week. We look for the trend of higher CD rates to continue in 2017 as long as there isn't a recession. The Fed is expected to increase the federal funds rate at least two more times this year, which will put more upward pressure on CD rates.
This week, the best 1 year CD rate in the database is now at 1.49 percent with an APY of 1.50 percent. A couple of weeks ago, the top 1 year CD rate was 5 basis points less.
The current national average 1 year CD rate also moved higher this week over last. The current national average 1 year CD rate is at 1.26 percent, up from last week's average of 1.30 percent.
CD rates are slowly inching higher and will continue to move higher in the coming months. A more immediate impact that will force CD rates higher is the Federal Open Market Committee increasing rates. The FOMC meets this week to decide on monetary policy and is widely expected to increase the fed funds rate by 25 basis points.
The CME Group's FedWatch Tool has a 97.2 percent probability that the Fed will increase the rate to a range of 0.50 percent to 0.75 percent. The last time the Fed increase the rate was December 2015 when the rate was increased to a range of 0.25 percent to 0.50 percent.
Several banks already increased CD rates on short term certificates of deposit recently, likely in anticipation of a Fed rate hike. The highest CD rates on 1 year certificates of deposit are approaching 1.50 percent and may hit 1.50 percent after the expected rate hike.

By now you must have heard the news that the Federal Reserve will increase their key-benchmark interest rate in 2015. When the federal funds rate is increased, CD rates and other bank rates will also increase. Higher rates is good news but you should position your CD investments for higher rates.If you have any certificate of deposit accounts maturing over the next 6 months you should invest in shorter term CDs. This is especially true for long term CD accounts maturing, most banks will automatically roll over your CD into another long term CD.So pay attention to the maturity dates, the last thing you want to do is lock into another 5 year CD at 2.50 percent. You'll have to either watch rates move above the low rate you locked-in or pay an early withdrawal penalty. By the end of 2015, or by early 2016, 1 year CD rates will probably be at 2.50 percent.
