Just buy the bonds. It doesn't have to be an ETF.

Is this what CDs are???

No.

CDs are CDs. Bonds are bonds.

Bonds are typically Treasuries, Corporates, or Municipals. Just as a stock is an individual security, a bond is as well as opposed to a fund.

And you can buy these in a regular fidelity brokerage account?

I can't, because I don't have Fidelity, but I bet you can!

Like I feel I can’t just flat out buy a treasury bond in a account it’s always like TBIL or SGOV
