I will tell you anecdotally that our Marcus account has had five rate increases since mid-August and seven since July 1 (1.20% to 2.50% now)


Marcus is lagging these days. DollarSavingsDirect is a legit FDIC online bank offering 3.5% on savings. Two year treasuries are at 4.5%. I'm winding down my Marcus account as neither their savings nor their CD rates are super competitive.

Oh do tell what is beating inflation? Stocks keep dropping and are likely to drop more...real estate is cratering...


you mean what's beating 4%... if fed raise another .75 this week, your savings earning will be pretty close to it. not to mention ibond


plus this is pretty good time to buy stocks if you are playing the long game


At this point, why lock up money at 4%. Do you think by November 1st, 2023 the markets will be 4% higher or more? Odds are, yes.


yes that was my point

Nice! I will take a look at this.

Discover has gone from ~0.4 to 2.35 over the course of the year.

Well thanks - I am not financialy savvy, I thought that our rate is set when we open the account, but it will be a variable rate?


it changes as interest rates goes up/down. ally is 2.35% right now, certain capone accounts offer 3%. i moved money from ally to capone this morning

We're going to open a high yield savings account soon. I know the fed is expected to hike rates again - how quickly might banks start to offer higher rate accounts?
