High Yield CD Search turns up Ascencia Bank

High Yield CD rates are hardly "high yield" this week (March 19th).  Our search did turn up an offer from  Ascencia Bank at 1.3% for 12 months.  The best part is you only need to put down $500 minimum to open an account.

Our best advice for you CD shoppers this week: check your local banks.  You can do so using Google's Compare CD tool by entering your zipcode.

The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 signed by President Bush on October 3, 2008, temporarily raises the basic limit on FDIC insurance coverage from $100,000 to $250,000 per depositor. Congress has extended this increase in coverage through December 31, 2013.

Ascencia accounts with us are FDIC insured. You can verify our insurance with the FDIC and learn how to determine the amount to which your account is insured.

The Stockmasters care the most about the 3 month and 4 month CD offers, and consider some of the 6 month, 9 month, and 1 Year options if the rates are good.

Every week we search through CD rates and only post the top performers for your review. Happy CD Investing and enjoy the articles.
