OP here. I’m looking too lock in a rate since it appears that rates may be coming down.


Ya, not responsive to your post, but I'm moving some to US REITs which I expect will do well when rates go down and they are relatively low risk.
I’ve owned REITs for years, they are definitely not low risk. Those dividends are not guaranteed.


Yeah pretty wild to compare an FDIC-insured, fixed rate investment to an equity investment in broad-based real estate.

What have you found recently? T-bill rates are dropping so I am looking at alternatives. I see Marcus has a 12 month CD at 4.1%. Anyone see something better?
