6-month and 12-month CD rates

Not much change for these shorter term CDs with ADB Bank and Amboy Direct holding on to the top spots and their CD rates of 1.90% APY for the 6-month term and 2.35% for the 1-year CD.

24-month and 36-month CDs

As mentioned, Capitol Federal Bank, which held the best 24-month and 36-month CD rates last week, dropped off the list this week after it adjusted its CD rate offers by a few percentage points down. Replacing Capitol Federal Bank are newcomers E-Loan for the 2-yr CD, and newdominionDIRECT for the 3-yr CD.

The rates offered by these two banks however, are still lower than last week’s rates, with the top rate for the 24-month yield falling from 2.60% to 2.47%, and the 36-month CD rate making a slight drop from 3.05% to 3.01%. On the whole however, these rates are still much higher than the national rate average of the banks followed by My Bank Tracker.

48-month CDs

Intervest National Bank continues to offer the highest CD rate for the 48-month CD category, although its rate did plunge from last week’s 3.50% to 3.20% APY this week.
