- zamnos 4y agoNot that I don't believe you, but you mind linking some? the best I could find was wealthfront cash, which is isn't a savings account but is giving 4.05% apy. Which is pretty good, but inflation's up at like 6.5%, so it's still a bit of a net loss
- neilv 4y agoI see 4.55% APY: https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/best-high-yield-interests-savings-accounts/ https://www.bankrate.com/banking/savings/best-high-yield-int... Fidelity SPAXX currently at 4.22% is close enough for me, because you get all the other Fidelity features.

- Rebelgecko 4y agoSome banks do it as a short term loss leader to acquire new customers. Eg Primus bank recently offered 5% interest, then after a month or two their rate fell back down to treasury APRs
- crushingk 4y agoSome are listed here: https://www.marketwatch.com/picks/these-8-financial-institutions-are-now-paying-a-guaranteed-5-or-more-on-their-cds-or-high-yield-savings-accounts-a8fd058d https://www.marketwatch.com/picks/these-8-financial-institut... I typically check the top rates for savings, checking, and CDs each week. Deals can appear then disappear quickly. The best rates often have restrictions, but not always.
