I just opened a Schwab SWVXX money market fund. I was told this is the best way to save for a house. Was this a good idea, now after watching this video, I'm thinking it is not. What do you think?

Hi, I brought 3 I-Bonds with a fix rate of 5.27%; now when I go on TreasuryDirect site it’s showing a lower rate. I don’t understand if it’s a fix rate why would my rate be lower? Thanks for your help

Excellent coverage! We have been following your videos for years now and your information is valuable. BTW, loved your professionalism in this video with focus primarily on financial topics and staying away from political comments. We rolled over our 6-month T-bills at 5.323% this week.

I just bought the 17 week T bill to keep my Treasury ladder on track. Financial "experts" spouting More blah blah about maybe rate cut Sept and one in Dec now saying Dec only. I say bull feathers! Listening to these goofballs (the same ones who said 4 to 6 rate cuts in '24 starting in march) instead of common sense is way better. i'll ride these rates till they drop i.e. under 4% (assuming inflation not reassuring) and then reassess where the market is. Better to take a sure thing in retirement then go all crazy. I have my growth stuff and value stuff and Reits all with good dividends in solid companies and ETF's. Nothing crazy. Good companies with a track record will weather any storm unless Armageddon takes out the world in which case it wont matter.

First off, Thank You for your videos. You inspired me to buy TBills through my Schwab Roth IRA. Then I opened a Treasury Direct account and bought several T Bills (27) that I have "laddered in". I have a larger no penalty CD (4.75%) over $100k that is maturing in August. The No Penalty CD in my bank is paying virtually nothing. I do not like having my money locked up for longer periods of time. I am considering putting it in to 4 wk T bills. My wife and I are considering relocating to another (lower tax state) later this year so I do not want to tie my money up. Any up or down sides that you see would be appreciated. Thank You (By the way, not asking for financial advice, just opinion and I will hold no one else responsible)

I'm still buying and laddering.

i have 4 week t-bills maturing on 7/2 and plan to roll them into the 7/3 auction. that has been my plan for awhile and will continue until the fed lowers rates (or the yield curve is no longer inverted).

End of the day, no diversification from stocks with dividend funds. I have SCHD in my portfolio because it is different stocks vs a VOO. You still need a bond, treasury or something other than a stock to truly be diversified.

I am buying the 4 week bill this week and next week.

There is 6 days difference between auction date and issue date in some cases. Interesting.

Just started rolling 4 week t-bills, so I plan to purchase this week. Also I've started to DCA the 20 yr bonds and this jump looks tempting to add to that position from the secondary market. Thanks for the content, Jen.

So clear and useful. Thank you!

Maybe I was looking at different auction results, but the most recent two year note was down to 4.62%. Could you explain where you are getting your information from?

I remember as a child during the Arab oil embargo having to wait inline for only 5$ worth of gas!

Jen, an honest question here, instead of juggling around with short term bills, rolling, and always being on the lookout for new auctions, can we not put money in a money market fund that yields us 5.44% and leave it alone? Especially if one is not signing up for 10year or longer note.

Hey there, I just discovered your channel. Thank you so much for putting your knowledge out there. Could you please make a video for bank accounts for foreigners who only work in the US for a couple of years (legally)? Until then I will binge-watch all your videos. Thanks again.

So tired of this narrative there was an agreement! Did anyone not read Henry Kissingers books!

There is always uncertainty and risk. This is why stocks return more than fixed income. Risk is the price you pay. So if markets hate it, fine, but it’s literally always there.

Brilliant analysis. Too many RUclips channels fall very short of any real digging to find the true facts and details, but just go with sensationalism. You are the true exception and this is why I have subscribed, long ago to your channel. Well done.

I'm buying 4- and 13week T-bills this week.

Investors historically have been bad at judging inflation and should have demanded higher returns. That may ultimately be the case here.

Still rolling 4-week treasuries.

will add more t bills this week. will continue rolling them as long as equity valuation is high

I actually purchased last week. I may do so again on Tuesday.

It’s unintelligent of the feds not to count food and energy when both those areas are choking the average American

Agreed end of the quarter window dressing ran into political world fear.

Tax question: is it better to buy a 2-5 year treasury that pays 5% at face value, or one on the secondhand market for the same 2-5 years that only pays 1.25%, but only costs like $899 (but you get $1K back at maturity). Is the $101 profit from the used bond taxable?

Always learn something from your videos, thanks! Oh, and buying 3 Month Bill ETFs (TBIL). Some folk might not know these are sold by the US Treasury. During the day on Friday, BIL was up 0.02%, and then dropped 0.02% after hours.

With 340 million Americans and this is our best.😢

I expect the pace of the uninversion process to quicken as election approaches. Joe is going to get his good economic news to push him over the line and start the close of this shameful chapter in American history

🎉this is the opportunity while the yields are juicy 😊

I will be focusing on the 52 week and 26 week Tbill projected yield.

go Joe keep the yields going up!

Could trump really default on our debt or recreate inflation and what as investors can we do about it?

Best analysis on RUclips

I’m buying this week. 13 week 1 year 2 year
