Something weird happened when I went to buy a CD.

Maybe this has occurred before, and it just wasn't at a time that I went to buy a CD.

A CD had matured in my Schwab IRA account, so I went to buy another. Side note, CDs are my entire investment portfolio at this time, thank goodness.

There were no new issues available longer than 3 months. Zero, zip, nada. Maybe this happens at certain times of the month and I had just never gone to buy a CD at that time of the month before? Maybe it's a glitch in the Schwab website?

Anyway, it was weird, and naturally the first thing I thought of was a possible relation to the current economic dumpster fire.

2. Yikes. I was going to buy one today too. I'll check back in if I have the same experience.

3. Treasuries. Any duration you want, and no state taxes. NT

4. I'll take something at least one more step removed from the federal government, thank you.

The last of my treasuries matured in March. I didn't buy more.
