Which Option is Optimal for Short-Term Cash: Bank CDs, Brokered CDs, or Treasuries?

SaveBetter No-Penalty CD (2.55% APY): Today we respond to a viewer's question about bank certificates of deposit versus brokered CDs. Here is the viewer's question: "I'd like to move some [money] to a CD - and don't understand the difference in buying a CD through my brokerage (Fidelity) - which is showing products with high rates or buying directly through a bank like the SallieMae Save Better listed in the newsletter? I feel confident in Fidelity and I'm not sure about an online bank I've not done business with/can trust?" It's a great question, In the video, I cover traditional bank CDs, no-penalty CDs, brokered CDs and short-term (1 year or less) Treasuries.
