Series I Bonds Offer Higher Yields Amid Rising Inflation
Series I bonds are currently offering a 4.26% annual interest rate through October 31, up from 4.03% through April 30, making them more attractive than alternatives like Treasury bills and money market funds. However, experts caution that investors should consider the downsides before purchasing. The increase in yields is linked to rising inflation, with the CPI rising to 3.3% year-over-year in March 2026.
