Cd Rates Seattle With CD Rates Low, What Are My Other Options For Investing 5K?

With CD rates low, what are my other options for investing 5K? - cd rates seattle

I invested a few thousand a year ago in a 6-month CD at 5%. 6 months later, I reinvested at a lower 4%. It is clear that prices are steadily declining and the average is around 3%. My CD will expire at the end, and I would like to add a little more than a thousand again, fell into a safe investment. I want a better return. Should I bite the poor performance of 6 months and prices in the hope of improving, or try something new. Suggestions?
