After paying zero for 6 months, they have a nice snapback. I recommended subscribers wait for the end of the year to buy and now we get rewarded with a positive 0.10% base rate. Good iBond rates: 1.64% Current Series-I Bond Interest Rates Some of the older ones pay up to 5.17%! Rates for Older Series I Bonds When the inflation rate is less than zero, the earnings rate will be less than the fixed rate but never less than zero. Fixed rate = 0.10% 6 month Inflation rate = +0.77% Composite rate =[fixed rate + (2 x inflation rate) + (fixed rate x inflation rate)] [0.0010 + (2 x 0.0077) + (0.0010 x 0.0077)]= [0.0010 + 0.0154 + 0.0000077)] = 0.0164077 0.0164077 x 100% = +1.64%
