Savings Bonds do have features that CDs don't have which are more attractive to some investors than the higher rates.

I now purchase them on an automatic purchase. Do you recommend not to purchase after April due to low 1-2% base and come back after that base changes back to a higher rate if it will. I did buy a CD as you had mentioned in our last email because the rates were higher.Marvin Beitler Dear Tom: thanks for the info on the I bonds. I now purchase them on an automatic purchase.
