Making the Most of High-Yield Savings

High-yield savings rates have dipped a bit since early spring—but they’re still strong enough that locking one in for a season could be a wise move. After several quarter-point rate cuts by the Federal Reserve since March, savings yields have eased slightly. Even so, many online banks continue to offer returns far above what you’ll find at most brick-and-mortar institutions. On the next Faith & Finance Live, Rob West unpacks what that means for you. Then, it’s on to your calls. That’s Faith and Finance Live—biblical wisdom for your financial decisions. That’s weekdays at 4pm Eastern/3pm Central on Moody Radio.
