Re: Capital One is at it again
But it was less than 1% from July 2019 to July 2020, so from 2019 to 2021 it’s 6.4% which is roughly 3% per year. From 2018 it’s 8.33%, which is about 2.7% per year. That’s not a crisis.JoMoney wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 10:00 amJuly 2020 - July 2021 CPI has been over 5%BogleFan510 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 9:56 am And yet we still see threads worrying about rampant inflation.

Using July 2020 as the starting point is a little disingenuous. Almost as if some large economic downturn had artificially lowered prices in summer 2020, but I can’t think of anything ….

With just about all the other popular online savings accounts paying 0.4-0.5%, Cap1 is not competitive at all.
Re: Capital One is at it again
Politics tends to seep into people's idea of what's a 'fair comparison' and what's 'disingenuous' in quoting recent inflation, but as you say the comparison of the CPI index between any two dates is a fact in the narrow sense if the person is quoting the numbers BLS released. But, inflation doesn't directly enter into the decision which bank to put your money in, also a fact. And IMO (really also a fact, just a fact more people refuse to recognize than the first fact ) hasn't much to do with deciding how much money to put in the bank vs. the stock market either. Capital One pays less than other accounts I already have (not even a question of the trouble of opening more accounts) so my Cap 1 savings account is empty and my cash reserve is in higher paying banks. CPI doesn't enter into that decision at all. And again I believe it naive to think the stock market offers a better opportunity relative to cash, including risk, when inflation is X than when inflation is Y, for the reason we've all basically agreed on in adopting the 'BH philosophy': the stock market is priced by buyers and sellers well aware of deposit rates, recent changes in CPI, and depending inter alia on their expectations of the future course of each.JoMoney wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 11:29 amThe CPI over the past year is what it is, it's not "disingenuous" it's a fact.TropikThunder wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 11:21 amBut it was less than 1% from July 2019 to July 2020, so from 2019 to 2021 it’s 6.4% which is roughly 3% per year.

Re: Capital One is at it again
I just did the quicksilver credit card offer from CapOne.
$200 if you spend $500 in first 3 months.
0% for 15 months.
Makes up for the low “savings” account rate.

Re: Capital One is at it again
I would say there is no single time frame that tells the full story clearly. Our financial independence is going to be most affected by the long-term trends, but short term trends, even for time frames after the start of the pandemic, could be the start of a new long term trend.TropikThunder wrote: ↑Sun Sep 12, 2021 11:21 amBut it was less than 1% from July 2019 to July 2020, so from 2019 to 2021 it’s 6.4% which is roughly 3% per year.

https://www.bls.gov/cpi/tables/suppleme ... 202107.pdf
CPI-U went down 1% from February 2020 to April 2020, but it was short-lived. By July 2020, the index had recovered and reached a new historic high. I looked backwards at inflation through July 2021 versus a couple different starting point (calculating as a monthly rate due to the varying time frames I'm using, then compound to annualized rate). Perhaps it would be better to do this as rolling inflation rates over fixed duration periods, but I'm just going to start with the direction this thread went - looking at inflation rates over varying durations ending with the most recent data:
Annualized inflation rate through July 2021...
- vs. Jan 2019: 3.2%
- vs. Jan 2020 (pre-pandemic): 3.8%
- vs. July 2020: 5.4%
- vs. Jan 2021: 8.9% (less than 1 year - 4.4% over 6 months)
One of the concerns is that it seems to be accelerating, which fits many expectations for the present situation: large economic stimulus program pushing money into the economy to increase demand, decreased productivity in many sectors reducing supply, and a sustained decrease in labor participation creating upward wage pressure increasing costs.
I don't know if this inflation will continue, but it appears to me there are strong odds that it will. If so, the portion of my savings sitting at CapitalOne are going to continue losing value.
On the other hand, the portion of my savings invested in the stock market have potential to do significantly worse than what is at the bank. Changing my asset allocation to chase uncertain short-term yield doesn't seem prudent, because my money in savings is not there specifically for the sake of beating inflation. Nor am I going to run in circles, changing banks over and over to chase 0.1% gains in return that are likely to flee a few months later anyways.

Re: Capital One is at it again
We had accumulated some cash in our AA, mostly just out of a desire for convenience to be able to access money without buy/sell transactions. But I couldn't really stomach it anymore with these paltry rates as expected returns are growing for other assets, so I used the opportunity to re-evaluate and put almost all of it back into the stock/bond mix. With a good sized taxable account and never having needed more than $5K of quick cash at any time before, just time to move on.

Re: Capital One is at it again
That's because Capital One did a really underhanded bait & switch a few years ago to its longtime customers. Existing customers were left in their money market account or 360 Savings account, but new customers were being offered the "360 Performance Savings" account. https://www.capitalone.com/bank/savings ... s-account/
The "Money Market" fund is paying 0.30%. The "360 Performance Savings" accounts are paying 0.60% as of today.
Capital One likely started offering this new account, figuring pre-existing customers wouldn't notice it and continue to leave their money in the money market and "regular" 360 savings accounts. Sorry if this is what has happened to you. (It happened to me too!)

Re: Capital One is at it again
Yes, this bait & switch is annoying, but it happened all the time at lots of banks -- I remember back while rate chasing in the good old days (2004–2007 or so when you could get 5% at HYSAs) that CitiBank would constantly create these new accounts ("Performance Savings!" "Ultimate Savings!" "Ultimate Performance Savings!" etc.) with high yields to attract new customers, and then quietly lower their "old" account rates. So we had to keep moving our money over from one to the next every couple of months.NYCPete wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 10:53 amThat's because Capital One did a really underhanded bait & switch a few years ago to its longtime customers.

Re: Capital One is at it again
And Citi usually wouldn't let you convert your existing account to the new type, so you had to open a second (or third, etc.) account to get the higher interest rate. I still have multiple savings accounts at Citi because of that nonsense.Atgard wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 12:09 pmYes, this bait & switch is annoying, but it happened all the time at lots of banks -- I remember back while rate chasing in the good old days (2004–2007 or so when you could get 5% at HYSAs) that CitiBank would constantly create these new accounts ("Performance Savings!"

Re: Capital One is at it again
I don’t understand why MM has a lower rate but I don’t think there was anything underhanded. I switched a couple years go when Capital One kept pushing the savings account on me in the app. I’m pretty sure I even got a bonus for switching.

Seems to be a targeted offer. I'm doing it rather than having my cash in a non-paying checking account. I'll take the $525 or whatever for the 3 months (bonus + interest). Maybe it'll be paying more than 0.6% by the end of it too.PugetSoundguy wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 12:41 pm I got an email bonus offer from Capital One.
$20,000 or more new money into the 360 Performance Savings account gets $150 (in addition to the new 0.60% rate)
$50,000 or more gets $450.
Money has to be transferred by May 13, 2022 and has to stay in the Capital One account until at least August 12, 2022.
The offer you linked is to open a NEW account. I guess they're the same amounts but apply to different sets of people. If you have a current 360 Performance Savings account and did not get the targeted email, however, you'd be ineligible for the promotion. So, yeah, the offer you mentioned is public/with promo code with restrictions as you stated.

Thanks for the clarification.e5116 wrote: ↑Wed May 11, 2022 8:43 pmTwo different offers. The one I got was targeted. It's for targeted existing Capital One customers only, NOT all existing Capital One customers. I was referring to this because of PugetSounds post about it, requiring new money to an existing account.student wrote: ↑Wed May 11, 2022 7:42 amI am aware of this but it is still not a targeted offer.
