Dividends

Looks like I was credited $58 in dividends for my IRA mutual fund (automatically reinvested to purchase more shares). I have one of the target-date retirement funds, which means at this point the fund is quite aggressive - but surprisingly I am only down 25% in the fund. I know many others who are staring at a 50%+ loss in their retirement holdings after this colossal meltdown.

Also renewed my CD earlier this week for 13 months, at an interest rate of 2.7%, nearly half of what I had for the previous go around. Still, it looks a bit above the average for CD yields in my area based on a few internet searches.
