Five Quick Tips for Handling Volatility
American Century Investments

How do I deal with market volatility?

  • Evaluate your portfolio. Make sure your assets are allocated among stocks, bonds and money market funds.
  • Periodically rebalance your portfolio and make adjustments to bring your investment mix back in line with your long term-plan. Regular rebalancing can help you manage risk and reward in your portfolio.
  • Maintain a long-term perspective. Avoid focusing on short-term performance, and make sure you consider how adding or removing funds could affect diversification in your portfolio.
  • Stay informed with our Weekly Market Updates and CIO Insights.
  • Work one-on-one with an Investment Consultant at 1-800-898-7592 to discuss your long term plan.

Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against a loss in a declining market.
Before investing, carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses.
Call 1-800-345-2021 for a prospectus containing this and other information. Read it carefully.
