U.S. Bonds vs. Bills vs. Notes

From investopedia:

• U.S. savings bonds, T-bills, and T-notes are all forms of debt issued by the federal government to help finance its operations.
• Bonds typically mature in 20-30 years and offer investors the highest interest payments to maturity.
• T-notes mature anywhere between two and 10 years, with bi-annual interest payments, while T-bills have the shortest maturity terms—from four weeks to a year.
• These all can be bought and sold in the secondary market, except for savings bonds, which are registered to just a single owner.

• 如果在某个broker公司买国债，这个公司破产的话，国债应该还是个人的吧？ -后来那年- ♂ (37 bytes) () 12/14/2022 postreply 21:13:51
