question: etrade treasure t-bills and TD AmeriTrade CD

I bought 1k tras t-bills at 2/6/2023 showing yield 3.4, 2/15/2023 maturity, price 999.88, but when I paid, it should accured interest 9.57, so I paid 1009.45. How much will I get at 2/15/2023? I read some article said it only returns face value of 1000. Why I have to pay accured interest? will I lose $9?

The same thing happened in CD at TD AmeriTrade, 3.8% from Ally bank, materity date 2/17/2023, 1k, it charged 1000.89+8.86 interest, total 1009.53, when will I get back at 2/17/2023?

I searched online but cannot find info about arrcured interest.

They are all retirement accounts.

It is my first time to buy. Please help me. Thanks a lot.

你買的肯定不是 treasury bill,你買的是2手的 note or bond -slow_quick- 給 slow_quick 發送悄悄話 slow_quick 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 09:13:50

如果有 accrued interest,那就不是 T-bill。你還是寫中文吧,英文錯字太多很難理解 -slow_quick- 給 slow_quick 發送悄悄話 slow_quick 的博客首頁 (123 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 09:11:27

你這在瞎搞什麽?在二級市場買美國十年期的國債隻差一個禮拜就到期了!我這破唱片再為你放一遍?買新發行的少於一年期的國債!! -hhtt- 給 hhtt 發送悄悄話 hhtt 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 11:46:38

短期國債每個禮拜都有一次新發行的,利息都在4.5%到4.9%之間。我說過10年期到5%就買,可就是不上去。 -hhtt- 給 hhtt 發送悄悄話 hhtt 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 11:49:44

如果是這樣,你現在應該買入股市!我從去年下半年就一直在叫,股市是大減價,應該買入!今天我不能說是大減價,隻是減價! -hhtt- 給 hhtt 發送悄悄話 hhtt 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 11:56:53

股市大減價是大盤跌了25%,今天大盤隻比最高點下調了14%。如果你在去年下半年買入股市,平均回報有個10%,好的有15% -hhtt- 給 hhtt 發送悄悄話 hhtt 的博客首頁 (0 bytes) () 02/07/2023 postreply 12:06:08
