I was -0.37%.
We both missed out on the extra returns of Treasury/Bond results vs. holding CD's it seems.

I just totaled up the numbers this morning.
+0.23% as of 1/31/20.
Even though I'm still in positive territory this year, it still feels like a bit of a smackdown. I peaked out on January 17, when I was up around 3.18%. Further, I had breached the $2M barrier for a bit, topping out at $2,019,100. I finally settled in at $1,962,301. So, rather than fret over it too much, I'll be happy with what I've got!
It's still an up month, overall, so that's a good thing, right? I haven't had a down month since August 2019, and that was pretty slight. Last serious down month was April, where I saw about a 5% haircut.

I keep thinking that "our day will come" where interest rates rise and the 3-3.5% CDs will make me look like a champ rather than a chump.

Why not put CDs and SV in bond category rather than cash?

To me they feel more like cash as the values don’t move up and down. With 13% there and a 3% withdrawal I feel good for about 4 years. [emoji3]

XIRR 0.0% 90/10 I have a significant amount in a Growth fund which carried the rest of the funds. The balance has taken a dip from a couple weeks ago. I figure that mid-February I will put the cash back to work also.
