But doesn't it increase the risk that you'd be locked into a lower rate than what you could currently find? So it eliminates downside risk, but you are more at risk if inflation and interest rates go up, right? I guess some lenders allow you to roll to a higher interest rate, though.

I've never owned a CD, and they just don't seem that appealing to me. Does anyone have data on what the historic returns for a CD ladder really were compared to something like a Vanguard Money Market fund? If the CD premium is small, I'd rather just leave it in one account, have access to it at any time, and be able to forget about it.
If you can get the interest from the ladder to generate the income needed, the ladder would be more effective than if you spent the principal. Consider a 10 year bond or CD ladder, for example, with the interest from the ladder being spent each year (supplemented by other sources as needed). The ladder reduces the interest rate risk of a bond fund, money market or similar having the yield change each day/week/month/year. A bond or CD ladder locks in current rates for a short amount of time- so even if rates fall and the maturing bond/CD has a low yield, you have 9 other rungs in the ladder locked in at a much higher yield carrying their weight for income generation.

Consider a 5 year CD ladder, for example. Each CD has 50k in it.

Year 1, CD A for 5 years with a 4% yield. Creates 2k of income annually.
year 2, CD B for 5 years with a 5% yield. Creates 2.5k of income annually
Year 3, CD C for 5 years with a 4.5% yield. Creates 2.25k of income annually.
Year 4 CD D for 5 years with a 7% yield. Creates 3.5k of income annually.
Year 5 CD E for 5 years with an 8% yield. Creates 4k of income annually.

18.25k of income annually from the ladder.

In year 6, when CD A matures, it locks in prevailing rates. The other 4 CDs do not.

If you are spending the principal, I do agree there are probably better ways to do this (dividends, capital gains, hold more cash or something).

If you are using interest as income and not spending principal, the purpose of the ladder is to spread the interest rate risk out. If all CDs were to mature in same year, you only can get the yield the market provides that one year... so if the 8% 5 year CDs from 2003 are maturing now, you are locked into a low rate for next 5 years. The ladder reduces the risk by applying that rate to only 1/5 of the total portfolio value.

I have had a CD ladder for the past about 30 years. I have built them out as long as 10 years using 2 Credit Unions and, from time to time a Bank. Current ladder goes out 8 years and current ROR is 5.7% and consists of 55 CD's. My AVERAGE rate of return has ever since 1/1/78 has coincidentally been 5.7%. They are and have always been either CU or Bank Insured CD's (nothing exotic). Currently waiting to finish the 2015 rung which was the latest 6.00% PENFED offering back in late 2007. Usually I just let the interest accrue to the respective CD unless I have a need for additional funds in which case I "pull" the interest monthly. Never had to redeem early. Currently holding funds in MMA until something safe comes along that is equal to 5.7% or greater return (may be a while).

BTW I have found it next to impossible to find a true "CD rate over time" (other than my own) and find Bank Rate numbers very low.

I'm glad people have explained how they rung ladders with CDs. It would have never occurred to me that people were invading principal to meet expense needs -- I just assumed that people were creating CD ladders so that interest income would pay for some dedicated expenses and spread out interest rate risk; I had intended to use a CD ladder in my case to supplement streams of pension and retirement account income and that's all.

what is the duration of the ladder (all 10 year CDs?, all 8 year CDs, varying maturities?)? Do you keep the rungs in equal increments? when a CD matures do you stay at same bank or shop around?

Do you feel your return has beaten money markets over same time period?

Thanks, OAG.

5.7% is what Vanguard gives as its "Average Annual Total Return" since inception (1981) of its Federal Money Market Fund. Prime Money Market Fund inception was 1975, and has a 6.42%, but obviously interest rates where really high between 75 and 78.

But it does seem like Money Market Funds and CDs are pretty much in the same ballpark. Makes me think I probably will take the easy road when I get around to having some cash in my portfolio.

I usually buy the longest CD (with the highest rate), be it 10, 7 or 5 years. I really don't shop around (beyond the three CU and Bank I have used over most of the period). I try to keep the rungs equal in maturity value, but that is not always possible (for instance in 2010 about 25% will mature, but that is the year we plan to purchase a new car and may relocate to another part of the country). MMA are relatively new to me (last 15 years or so) and I usually could beat them in rates on long term CD's. I have started to use a MMA currently, however (HBSC 3.5% FDIC rate).

I was in the process of building a CD ladder for a projected retirement on Feb '08.

I retired somewhat suddenly in Dec '04 and the CD ladder was not complete; I am still working on it.

The idea was 5 $20,000 CDs, one maturing every year, taking off the earnings and rolling over the principal.

4k or 5k per year income supplement.

That will start in Dec '09.

I'm appending this to this old thread, since the basic topic has already been covered fairly well here. However, I have a few specific questions I hope y'all can help with. My Mom (73) has her pile of money that she insists on keeping in cash. She lives on her SS and VA bennies, and uses the interest from the cash for luxuries and unexpected expenditures. I was going over her holdings with her recently, and IMO she needs to update her methods.

She currently has ~$250K in CDs, and ~$200K in savings and checking accounts. The savings accounts are paying basically nothing. She has been buying short term CDs (6-9 months) so she is now facing 1-2% yields as they come due. I told her about a CD ladder, which was a new concept to her. She's interested, but would like me to design a strategy for setting it up.

I understand the normal process for setting up a ladder (buy 1, 2,...5 year CDs, then buy 5 year CDs each time one comes due). I suspect she's going to complain about locking in the incredibly low rates currently available (3-4% for a 5 year). But I don't see any real way around it. At least without venturing into something extremely risky like a short term bond fund. If anybody has any good suggestions on this I would appreciate it.

The second part of my quest for advice is this: If I do get her to ladder the CDs as above, and interest rates go up significantly say 3 years down the road, would there be a big issue with early withdrawal of the older low rate CDs? Is it just a question of determining if the new rate would overcome the penalty? And what are normal penalties for a 5 year CD? Loss of a year or so interest? If I could tell her she could bail on a low rate CD if the rates goup it might make for a better sell for the method.

I would appreciate any and all opinions. Thanks.

This is a good question so I did a bit of research at PenFed
For CD between 6 months and 5 years, the penalty is 180 days of the most recent interest earned. So at current rates this will be a bit over 2% (due to compounding). You are slightly better off taking the penalty if at the end of the first year you can replace the 4% 5 year CD with 4 year CD earning 5% or more.

One of my resolution after this market is to set up a small CD ladder knowing that the penalty isn't too severe is helpful to overcoming my natural reluctance to CDs.
[IMG]file:///C:/Users/PURK%27S%7E1/AppData/Local/Temp/moz-screenshot-1.jpg[/IMG]
One thing I noticed while doing research it appears that CD you buy through a broker like Schwab or Vanguard don't have an early withdrawal penalty, but they also don't have the option to redeem them early. Instead you have to sell them in the secondary market which means they would probably sale below par value.

Am I correct in assuming that if interest rates go up a lot you are better off getting a CD directly from bank or credit union than a broker?

As long as we bumped this old thread, I confess I never thought CD ladders added much. Other than a theoretic twinge less risk, I can't see their advantage over a good quality short term bond or even a short term federal bond fund. Returns seem comparable or better for the bond fund, both are stable, and the fund is liquid with checkwriting, etc. any time you wish, and no early withdrawal penalties or yearly purchasing hassle.

FDIC coverage, granted. Anything else compelling in favor of CDs?

Well as a former investor in the Schwab Yield Plus short term bond fund, which has average maturity of less than 1 year, and yet managed to lose -35% percent last year (and -10% this year), I can insure that twinge less risk is not merely theory. While Schwab Plus was the worse short term bond. M* say that 22 out 123 short term bond funds had double digit loss last year. So CD is defintely safer. The beauty of the CD is unlike a bond fund you can't lose money. Now government securities (if held to mature) also you can't lose money.

Thanks to the governments recent backing you can't lose money in a money market but A CD ladder generally offer higher return. For instance while 1 year 2% CD or a 5 year 4$ CD at Penfed are nothing to get to excited about compared the .36% I am getting on my Vanguard or Schwab money market funds.

The other valuable thing about CD is the ability to reedem them for modest penalty (about 2% for a 5 year CD) not just in the event of an emergency, but also if interest rates rise.

I never considered the implied put (i.e. the ability to send the lender the keys) that came with a mortgage to be that big of a deal. However, recent events have proved that it is a valuable thing. If we see a big spike in interest rates, the value of even intermediate 2-5 year bonds or bond funds will drop considerably, 10-20% is certainly possible. However with a CD ladder you can catch the rise in interest rates pretty easily, and are locked into to higher rates when interest rates fall.

If you're concerned about low 5 year CD rates, maybe do a three year ladder for now. Its still much better than earning 0% in her checking and savings.

Also make sure you use different banks to keep below the FDIC limit.

Points taken, though that fund is the target of massive class action suites, was inconspicuously 50% in mortgage related holdings, etc. For my safe money I probably won't choose any fund with the terms "Yield Plus" in the name .

My Vgd Short-term Federal fund is up 6-7% or so for the last year or ten and has been rock solid since its 1987 inception date. Short term bond funds are obviously not all the same -- I should have clarified that I was referring to the more boring, routine lower risk bond funds.

But true, who's to say that tomorrow some scandal won't surface, and a CD would be safer.

I think the real idea behind the CD ladder is that longer term CD's usually have higher yields but you could just buy some 5 year and 4 year and 3 year and keep some money liquid or whatever.

OAG was the one who taught me a lot about CD's I wish he was still here. I know there are a few objectionable people here but there are on every forum...I wish he would have stayed.

Also check the early withdrawal penalties on CD's before you buy them. I looked around my local area and I got a big range of penalties. The best was 6 months and the worst....well! The worst is really whatever the bank wants it to be and some banks use strange formulas and really stiff penalties. The penalty for some where I'm at was 20% on a 5 year CD or 2 years interest on another!! That is how bad it can get.....I don't know why anyone buys CD's with those terms but maybe they just don't check?

I don't disagree wth you personally, but I'm dealing with my Mom. She's a great LBYM type, and a great saver, but she has zero knowledge of any investing techniques, and adamantly refuses to consider anything other than cash. I tried to point out that if she had invested this money over the last 25 years instead of just saving it, she'd probably be worth a couple million, even after the meltdown. But I was talking to the hand.

Therein lies another problem. She doesn't have (or want) access to the intertubes, so she wanders around her mid-sized town looking for the best rates. She does keep below the FDIC limit, but is nowhere near getting the best rates around nationally. I'm going to ask her is she wants me to manage the CDs, shopping them and moving them around as needed. Otherwise, it's local and big national banks, about 10 to choose from, and just let them roll over. Hopefully she'll let me get involved to maximize her returns. Doing it once/year wouldn't be any imposition for me.

I suspect very few people even consider early withdrawal when setting up a CD. I probably wouldn't either, except in conditions like these today, with low interest rates that are liable to increase significantly over the life of a 5 year CD. I'll read the fine print, and hopefully will be able to explain it to her.

harley,

A CD ladder is a middle of the road approach to rising or falling CD rates. If CD rates rise, you get to partake b/c you've always got a CD maturing every year. If CD rates fall, you don't get taken to the cleaners b/c you've always got CDs earning the higher past rates for a while. A CD ladder smooths out the changes in interest/income.

Be careful what you wish for. I did the same thing for my mom, and the next thing you know you end up managing all of their investments. Actually I think we are both happier. I still let her roll over CDs in the local banks and she is in Rogue River Or. Pop 2,000...

BTW, board favorite PenFed is a joy to work with over the phone, and they offer the best rates 4% for 5 years 3.5% for 3 years. I think they are very accustomed to working with little old ladies.

Sounds perfect, thanks! She deals with other military organizations (USAA, Tricare, etc), and always has good things to say about them. I'll try to start her phone CD hunting with them, make it a little less painful.

Actually, I wish she would let me handle things. I'd do it according to her wishes, and I suspect it would take me 1/10th as much time to do it as to work through it with her. Finances or computers, I work better hands on. I always sucked at phone support. Seems like as long as the money is "safe" and the interest checks roll in on time, she should be happy. We'll see.

Harley, I can't find it at the moment but seem to recall that PenFed charged no penalty for early termination of IRA CD's. Not sure if any of your mom's money is in an IRA, but thought you might want to check it out if that's the case.

It was either that or no penalty for terminating an IRA CD in favor of a CD paying a higher interest rate for at least the same term length.
