Are Your CDs Keeping Pace with Inflation?

If your CD has recently matured — or is about to — it may be worth reviewing how your savings are performing in today’s changing economy. While fixed CDs offer predictable returns, their yields often don’t keep up with inflation, especially during periods of stagflation, when prices rise and growth slows.


CDs vs. Gold: What the Numbers Show

Bar graph comparing average CD returns to gold returns from 2000 to 2025
  • At 2.9%, inflation is higher than what most CDs pay
  • Gold’s average yearly returns beat current inflation by 3x
  • Gold historically earns 5x more than the current 1-year rate

Why Investors Consider Adding Gold

Gold has historically provided diversification and a potential hedge during inflationary and low-rate environments. While CDs lock in fixed yields, gold’s price has tended to move differently from traditional interest-bearing accounts — offering an alternative way to preserve purchasing power when inflation rises.
