I am going to look for a six to eight month CD after the December rate hike.
If you have the money available now, there is likely little to be gained in waiting. On such a short-term CD, the difference in rates may not compensate for the 3 to 4 weeks in interest differential you'll miss out on by not doing it now. Then, there's also the possibility that after the Fed hikes, rates do not move.
