30 months is a sweet spot for many of us, and many places (like here) offer a 30mo CD, just as many places offer an 18mo CD.
You have all the other choices up there (6mo, 1yr, 18mo, 2yr, 3yr, 4yr, 5yr, 6+) but not 30mo.
Would it be possible to add the 30mo term to the main drop-down for CD Rates? Otherwise, it's near impossible to compare rates except hunt-and-peck one by one to see which places offer 30mo terms. Many of my CDs are 30mos from various places, and it would really help if just one more catagory -- 30mo -- could be added to the quick drop-down list....
Thank you!
