Yesterday the Bureau of the Public Debt announced earnings rates for Series I Savings Bonds and Series EE Savings Bonds, issued from November 1, 2017 through April 30, 2018.
Series I bond, or iBond, fixed rates are determined each May 1 and November 1. Each fixed rate applies to all I-bonds issued in the six months following the rate determination.

Disclosure: I own Series I Bonds in my personal account () I also currently have them in my Newsletter Explore Portfolio. Some of the old iBonds in my personal account have base rates of 3.0%!
