Top Long-Term CD Rate at Saint Casimir's Savings Bank in MD - Local Only
Update 10/7/2011: The 8-year CD rate has fallen.
Finding a 3 percent CD these days is especially hard, and as we learned in the last week, it often doesn't last long when we find one. I hope this one lasts for a while.

There is something fishy going on here. As soon as Ken posts about a good CD rate, the bank or CU drops it like a rock. The rate on this bank's 96-month is now sub-2%. Ken, please report on this phenomenon. Do you think it is due to the sheer numbers of your readers, just a coincidence, or both? If the bank or CU made a business decision to attract deposits with a competitive rate, why would some inquiries or account openings attributable to this blog totally derail it? It's almost like we called their attn. to a good rate, and they then promptly "corrected it." I do not understand. The end result is, however, that good rates publicized by this blog vaporize really quickly. A terribe irony in this environment. Ken, this would make a great thing for you to write about. Sadly, you have many recent examples to cite.

It would not surprise me if the banks have a service which follows this blog and alerts them if they appear on it...a sure sign that their rates are "too high" :(
