What is dollar-cost averaging and how does it work?
Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA), also known as Rupee-Cost Averaging or average cost investing, is an investment strategy used in stock market investing where you invest a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of market conditions.
This approach helps smooth out the average purchase price of investments, providing protection against market volatility. For instance, if you invest Rs.100 every month, you will buy more units when prices are low and fewer units when prices are high. Over time, this strategy reduces the risk of investing a large lump sum at an inopportune moment, potentially leading to better long-term returns. It promotes disciplined investing and is especially beneficial for long-term financial goals.
At Bajaj Broking, we offer tools and resources to help you incorporate dollar-cost averaging into your investment strategy.
