MSB => Morgan Stanley Bank, UT; MSPB => Morgan Stanley Private Bank, NY;

SCHW => Charles Schwab Bank, TX; UBS => UBS Bank USA, UT; WF=> Wells Fargo Bank, SD.

Notes: If you want to lock in 5% CDs now, you have to look for those rates nationally or locally available via Direct Bank or Credit Union. There are not many with durations over 1-year.

For those staying liquid, expecting a one and done recalibration cut in September, or expecting multiple cuts not to materialize until next year, or waiting for the yield curve to steepen (longer rates to rise) and/or waiting for the bond vigilantes to appear, demanding higher longer rates, here are the previous ten weekly 4-week T-bill auctions most recently yielding investment rates: 5.263%, 5.335%, 5.355%, 5.381%, 5.381%, 5.381%, 5.365%, 5.365%, 5.375%, 5.365%.

As of August 28, ICI reported to the Federal Reserve that $6.26 trillion of cash is parked in money market funds. This is an increase of $21.05 billion from the prior week. Current Money Market yields at Vanguard are (VMFXX (Settlement fund) 5.25%, VUSXX 5.24%, VMRXX 5.26%).

American Express re-enters the 5-year, new issue, non-callable, brokered CD arena, albeit at a lower rate.

Remember back in November 2022 when American Express and the other two credit card banks, Capital One and Discover, were each offering 5-year new issue, non-callable, brokered CDs @ 5.00%?

American Express is currently offering a 5-year @ 3.75% new issue, non-callable, brokered CD at Vanguard.

is waiting for bond "vigilantes" anything like waiting for Godot? with about 4 months to go in the calendar year, The Bond King's prognostication back in the spring that the 10 year Treasury yield would reach 5% by end 2024 is looking particularly "off the mark." accurately predicting future interest rates is hard, even for the smartest guy in the bond world.

Yes, it is, a metaphor for hope. Maintaining liquidity allows action, if Godot arrives.
