"Record-High CD Rates and New High-Yield Options: Your Guide to Today's Top Money Market Accounts"

CD rates in the U.S. are at their highest levels in over 16 years, with the top nationwide rates holding steady. Pelican State Credit Union offers the industry-leading rate of 5.90% APY on a 2-year certificate, while over two dozen other CDs are paying rates of 5.50% APY or better. The Federal Reserve's next meeting is in five weeks, and it remains uncertain whether interest rates will be raised or held steady. Longer-term options are available for those looking to secure rates of 5.00% or more. It is important to compare rates across different types of certificates before making a final decision.
