A simple question, but which is the better place for my spare cash?
1) Vanguard's Prime MMF advertises a yield of 5.08% which is "7 day average income yield net of expenses". However, this rate fluctuates throughout the month, and I'm not sure if I need to annualize this rate to reflect compounding (daily? weekly? monthly?).
2) Emigrant Direct offers an interest rate of 4.93% which is a 5.05% APY, it looks like that's daily compounding.
