Deep dives

Consider selling treasury note for higher return

Joanne has a three-year treasury note that pays 2.625% and matures in 2025. Although selling it now would result in a loss, she can reinvest the money in an Alliant CD at 5.3% and earn more. The treasury note's low return and the potential for higher interest rates in the future make the CD a better option.
