Marcus by Goldman Sachs and Synchrony Financial each raised the annual percentage yield on their 1-year certificates of deposit to 5.3% this past week, according to an analysis from Wells Fargo. Even if the central bank were to step back from its monetary policy stance, banks could still see pressure from higher deposit costs as they compete with money market funds and lower cost CDs reprice at higher rates. Investors hiding in cash-like instruments, including money market funds and savings accounts, face reinvestment risk if interest rates decline. Savers who want the safety of a steady rate for two years also saw yields go up for CDs at select banks this past week. Marcus by Goldman Sachs hiked its APY to 4.85% for its 2-year CD, and Discover Financial boosted its rate to 4.4%.

Jeffrey Gundlach sees an economic downturn on the horizon, but he also sees an opportunity emerging for income investors. Gundlach, founder of DoubleLine Capital, sees interest rates falling as the U.S. economy moves into a recession in the first part of 2024 . However, investors seeking income may do well to step out a little further on the yield curve, rather than hiding in 6-month Treasury bills and cash-like investments. Investors in holdings that are too short-dated may find themselves exposed to reinvestment risk as rates decline. He said investors could buy "the entire yield curve at this point."

Mutual funds are preparing to issue 2023 capital gains distributions — and that could mean a tax surprise is lurking in your portfolio. Fund families are issuing estimated capital gains distributions, which they will make to their shareholders in December. The IRS deems these capital gains to be long term, meaning they're subject to rates of 0%, 15% or 20%, based on your taxable income and filing status. "Excluding 2022, we've had 10-plus years of strong stock market performance, and funds are sitting on embedded gains," said Welch. Portfolios that are actively managed can also generate big capital gains if there's a lot of turnover.

☆ Protect your portfolio income from hefty state taxes with these funds
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-26 | by ( Darla Mercado | Cfp | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

Investors in high-tax locales can protect some of their portfolio income from steep levies by adding state-specific municipal bond funds to their fixed-income roster. "In the muni bond fund market, we're seeing yields higher than they have been in more than a decade," said Amy Arnott, portfolio strategist for Morningstar Research Services. That's because while muni bond income is generally free of federal taxes, it can also avoid state levies if the investor resides in the state where the bond was issued. That's where state-specific muni bond funds come into the picture. See below for a chart of 10 large state-focused muni bond funds.

Today's higher interest rate environment drives home the reason why investors should scrutinize stocks offering tempting double-digit yields. Digging beneath the surface Multiple factors may contribute to a stock touting high dividend yields at first blush. First, there are dividend sustainers – companies that have made steady payments for years, including Merck , Johnson & Johnson and Southern Co . Investors who want to hunt dividend payers shouldn't go for the biggest yielders, but instead look for names that are in the second or third quintile among dividend payers, he said.

LendingClub bumped the annual percentage yield on its 1-year CD to 5.65%, an increase of 15 basis points.
