Simple investing, with Truist Invest)

Dollar-cost averaging means investing consistently, whether the market is up or down. 

It simplifies the way you invest and reduces overall investing risk. 

Here's how it works. You invest $100 each month. In January, the cost of your investment is $10 a share in June, it's $10.25. 

(Visual Description: An illustrated graph displays how amounts vary from January through June, going as low as $8.75 in April.)

As the share price fluctuates, your $100 contribution by varying share amounts. 

If you'd invested the entire lump sum back in January, your $600 investment would be worth $615. 

(Visual Description: Animation shows investing $600 broken up into $100 each month from January through June.)

But if you practiced dollar cost averaging, your $600 investment would be worth about $649 because you were able to take advantage of market dips.

Dollar cost averaging with a robo-advisor like Truist Invest allows you to invest confidently, even in volatile markets.
