CD rates are locked for the term, and pulling money out early usually costs you several months of interest. Interest is taxable in the year it is credited, even if you leave it in the account.

In plain English

CD & Savings Yield explained simply

Banks pay you to keep money with them. This shows how much you'd earn, including the small boost you get from interest being added over and over.

For example

$10,000 in a 5% CD for 2 years grows to about $11,025, a bit more than 5% twice because of compounding.
