Interesting. Let me know what you find out about them. Those are new to me.
Ok so I was only partially right, you can add money to them at any time but if you pull any out before maturity you lose 3 months of interest. We opened them at 5.25%, right now they’re offering 4.25%, have another month to decide whether to move it or leave it there

Kulr to the floor? I am yet to buy in and have really wanted to maybe 20 times. When it was rising I guessed wrong every time and never found an entry. Now that it's falling like a rock, wondering where close to the support will be.

Theres a few Tbills that are roughly that same return and you wouldnt have to pay state taxes on the gains from them. If you have Fidelity, it is as simple as opening a brokerage account, putting the money into it and buying them.

Locking some money up at 4.25% for a bit might not be a bad play. I THINK most rates are going to hover right around there and if they do move, it will be down.

Here is step by step on how to purchase them. The Fixed Income, Bonds and CDs link can be found in the News & Research tab.

Just another option for you and others. Depending on how much money you are talking, that tax savings can be significant.

Been tracking it since spring at 22 cents so I know what you mean. I set a buy order at $2.20 which is 60% off its high. That's just a number I was comfortable with, no reason behind it tbh. We'll see if it gets there

Looking for thoughts on XRP. Is this a stock to day trade or long term hold? Opinions?

I too am curious about xrp, I put in a very small amount early last year on a whim and wish I’d have put more in at that time.

It seems to be fluctuating enough daily that if you could easily make good money trading it daily. It also seems like it could be a good hold with the incoming administration.

XRP is not a stock it’s a crypto.

For me it’s a big no to both. Here’s why, for me.

XRP hit its all time high on Jan 7, 2018 at $3.36. Its current price is $2.51, it is still 25% away from hitting a new all time high, over 6 years.

In November 2024, xrp unlocked 1 billion tokens to dump onto the market and existing holders. At the time that was a 18% inflation rate. To just stay flat xrp would have required $5 billion in buying pressure to just stay flat. XRP regularly has massive token unlocks.

I prefer to invest in btc or low inflation crypto. Sure you can make some money on short term holds, but you better be watching the market closely.

If the new administration creates a BTC strategic reserve, which I think is very likely, then all cryptos will pump. Rising tide theory.
