Today I bring a new post with the best 1-year CD rates that I can find.
The FDIC has closed thirty-eight banks thus far in 2010. They are on pace to close even more this year over last 2009. 200 to 500 of banks are in the under-capitalized category and most of those will not be able to recover. Still looming residential losses plus impending commercial losses will just break the camels back.
When thinking about 1-year CD interest rates you want your bank to hang around for a while. So check for the health of the financial institution.
Nevertheless here are some jumbo CD yields I found.
It seems that credit unions are leading the pack.
Alliant Credit Union has a 2.10% APY for a one year Certificate of Deposit. The rate is good from 1-year to 23-months. Interest is paid at maturity only. 5-star Rating.
Melrose Credit Union in New York has a 2.07% interest rate.
Amazingly, I found a bank with a 2.00%. Most banks are in the 1.50% range because of the FDIC National rate cap. Check out First City Bank. 2.00% APY. They can be reached at 888-244-5151. Of course there are a couple of caveats. It is a 15-month CD which is what gets them around the FDIC cap. They have a 0-Star rating. And to make it worse, they are located in Florida. But they are FDIC insured.
Franklin Synergy Bank has a 1.95%, also for 15-mos. They are out of Franklin, TN. They have a 2-star rating.
Use the FDIC or NCUA website to do your own safety check. Take a look at the various ratios. Look for a E/A ratio above 7%, a total risk based capital above 10% (only applicable to banks), and if the institution has a loss, make sure it is only about 25% of the capital when you adjust for yearly earnings. These are just suggestions. The web also offers some free bank and credit unionrating tools. One is found at bankrate[dot]com.

Toddlers throw temper tantrums from time to time and some are really good at it. Being a good parent is what will stop these temper tantrums just about immediately. Many parents will try to stop the temper tantrum right away by giving in to whatever the child is having the temper tantrum about. There is no real reason for fits of rage most of the time. But it is best to let the temper tantrum take its steps.
Temper tantrums begin when the child is between two to five years old. Prior to putting a halt on temper tantrums you will first need to figure out why they have started. First of all you need to keep in mind that your toddler may be hungry because they do eat less then an adult and more frequently. You need to show by modeling that temper tantrums are not productive. Many times temper tantrums can not be avoided. It is also a good thing to let your toddler have some different options to let them feel as thought they have the control this should prevent some temper tantrums.
If a temper tantrum happens for no good reason at all then it is a good idea to ignore your child as much as you can, be sure that they are not hurting themselves or anybody around them. When you are doing this it will make you feel as though you are not a great parent but it will have your child feel as though they are not getting anywhere with their tantrum. The next time that your toddler feels that there is a need for a temper tantrum it may not happen or it might be shorter. This is why no one likes temper tantrums in public. If you react to the temper tantrum by giving in every time your toddler will feel as though this is what they need to do to get what they want. Be sure that you are being the boss and not your child.
Over time your child’s temper tantrums should stop. If they do not stop then it would be best to check with your doctor about your child’s behaviour. There might be some medical reason why your child is acting this way.
