*****Public High-Yield Bonds: All investing involves the risk of loss, including loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future results. This is not a recommendation or offer to buy/sell securities or engage in any investment strategy. Brokerage services for treasuries in a Treasury Account and US-listed securities, options, and bonds in a self-directed brokerage account are offered by Open to the Public Investing, member FINRA & SIPC. Public Advisors and Public Investing are affiliates. Self-directed Individual Retirement Accounts and Bond Accounts are offered by Public Investing. A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing, member FINRA/SIPC. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The 6.9% yield is the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of 3/13/2025. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not "locked in" until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The "locked in" YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See Public's fee schedule for more information. https://public.com/disclosures/fee-schedule. Bond Accounts are not recommendations of individual bonds or default allocations. The bonds in the Bond Account have not been selected based on your needs or risk profile. See Bond Account Disclosures to learn more. https://public.com/disclosures.
