 What is a Mutual Fund?  What is DCA?  What if Markets Go Up ?  What if Markets Go Down?  Summary  Definitions  Disclosure

 A mutual fund is a pooling of assets investing in diversified stocks or bonds. Advantages to investing in mutual funds include diversification, professional management, high liquidity and accessibility for people with a smaller amount of capital.

 Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) is a systematic way to invest in mutual funds on a monthly basis.  Many times large initial investment contributions are waived in light of a monthly stream of investments.  Some mutual fund families are willing to start an investment plan with as little as $25 dollars per month.

 If markets go up, the investments will rise accordingly based on the underlying investment’s performance of the holdings of the fund.  For a younger investor a more aggressive position may be encouraged but factors such as risk tolerance, investment experience and time horizon for use of such funds have to be taken in consideration.

 Markets go up and down. Investors tend to get nervous when the markets turn dramatically to the downside.  The use of a DCA program can benefit an investor in rough or uncertain times. As prices for the underlying funds drop DCA investors would be able to purchase more shares at a lower price.  If the markets turn positive, the benefit from buying low can be stunning.

* Relationship between the price per share and cost per share to the investor.

 The graph on page 8 represents the accumulation of shares over a longer period in the Alger fund  When the price drops in the underlying fund the amount of shares increases over time  You are able to build a nice base of shares at lower prices

 If the DCA plan is un-interrupted during down markets both the value and average cost will decline as well  If the markets start to turn positive, as evidenced in the Gain versus Loss Graph, the value of the account can have dramatic gains  In the case of the Alger Fund during 2008 and beyond the loss seen in 2008 was completely reversed
