Performance (illustrative)
Learning notes
Add your own observations as you practice.
- Notice how the bond fund and money market moved less than the equity index funds — that's the risk/return tradeoff in action.
- Buying a little at regular intervals (rather than all at once) is called dollar-cost averaging.
- This simulation uses simplified, non-real-time prices. Real markets move every second and can lose value, including all of your principal.
