GLOSSARY

DRIP

IN PLAIN ENGLISH

A dividend reinvestment plan: your broker uses each cash dividend to buy more of the same shares automatically.

WHERE YOU MEET IT

Set up at your broker, not in the app. Record each reinvestment as a small buy so your share count stays right.

WATCH OUT FOR

Each reinvestment is a purchase at that day's price, so it adds to your cost basis.
