One thing to add:
With CDs the taxes on earnings are on your income tax bracket, unless bought in a retirement account like an IRA.
With stocks/funds, if you own it for more than 1 year then when you sell the taxes on earning are lower (15% for people in the ~$40k-$400k income range). Selling them in under 1yr has earnings taxed on income tax bracket just like CDs.
