722.0. "CD rates in New England" by 17576::SCARDIGNO (God is my refuge) Mon May 16 1994 12:05

           Even though CD rates are pretty low now, I didn't seen much
           activity in this conference (compared to archived conf) on
           CD's.
           
           The rates at New Dartmouth Bank as of about mid-April were as
           follows:
           
           Term         Rate
           
           1 YR         3.60
           2 YRS        4.10
           3 YRS        5.00
           4-5 YRS      5.30
           
           Anyone seen any better rates?

	re .-1 I opened a US SAvings Bond in Feb. 94 with the current rate of 4.00%. Will my rate change to the higher rate or is mine locked in at 4 % ?
722.7	Adjustable rate	KOALA::BOUCHARD	The enemy is wise	`Tue May 17 1994 17:23`	4
	EE bonds pay a variable interest rate, adjusted periodically. The 4.00% you quote is the gauranteed minimum rate. So yes, you're getting the current rate (as is every EE bond holder)
