The new Debt-Free Index CD is comprised of equal parts Singapore dollar, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, Australian dollar and Brazilian real. Why these currencies? All 5 economies have a strong balance of payments—a factor that could aid performance against the U.S. dollar.
Of the 5 economies, only Australia has a trade deficit—and the gap appears to be narrowing. Concerned about investing in a weak U.S. dollar? Consider this new Index CD, it is available in 3- and 6-month terms with a $20,000 minimum deposit. Apply today here
This CD is FDIC insured against bank insolvency, but please keep in mind that you could lose principal as a result of currency fluctuation.
