Reply to comment by RollTideHTX in High-yield savings account - Which type of Ally should I open? by clong55

It takes a few seconds to move money from a HYSA to a no penalty CD and you get a better rate. This is a no brainer.

Well, the money is locked up for a week, and AFAIK there's no autodraft for CDs, so there needs to be a little bit of consideration.

Also, you should probably open multiple CDs so you don't have to cash out everything if you just need a little bit of cash.

True, but if you’re just starting out with HYSA probably good to start with just a general account.
