T-bill rates. They're all about 5.35-ish percent now. [View all]

4-week, 8-week, 17-week, whatever. They're getting up there.

You can check them without having an account.

Full disclosure: I kicked in some money yesterday. I placed a bid for some 17-week bills and another for 4-week bills. It looks like both those auctions took place today.

So if the government does something you don't like, you have me to blame for financing it.

Thanks! I've been watching, to see if I want to put some $ aside in a CD at my Credit Union. SWBTATTReg Aug 2023 #1

T-bill rates are at about CD rates. mahatmakanejeeves Aug 2023 #4

The US10Y @4%+ is quite intriguing. NoMoreRepugs Aug 2023 #2

It's a "double" in *Yield*-- lastlib Aug 2023 #3

Hence intriguing to say the least. Worst case 4% guaranteed. NoMoreRepugs Aug 2023 #7

Please explain how to do the bidding? h2ebits Aug 2023 #5

You don't make an exact bid. You take whatever comes your way. mahatmakanejeeves Aug 2023 #6
