CDs.
A certificate of deposit (CD) is low-risk and (if FDIC-insured) guarantees your principal and a fixed interest return for the term. Stocks and commodities are volatile and not guaranteed to make money. Mutual funds vary — some are lower-risk (e.g., money‑market or short‑term government bond funds) but none are guaranteed the way an insured CD is.
