I know we all love our CDs, but how about some bank stocks? An awful lot of them are pretty beaten-down, and most pay attractive dividends. The big banks tend to pay a higher yield, but you give up growth opportunities and can never exactly be sure what is in their portfolios. The midsize and small banks usually have better growth opportunities and are easier to understand, but usually offer lower yield. Might not be the bottom quite yet, but I may be starting to nibble soon.
