REGULAR INVESTMENT PLANS
One easy way to pursue your financial goals is to invest money
regularly. Fidelity offers a convenient service that lets you transfer
money between fund account, or between fund accounts, automatically.
While regular investment plans do not guarantee a profit and will not
protect you against loss in a declining market, they can be an
excellent way to invest for retirement, a home, educational expenses,
and other long-term financial goals. Certain restrictions apply for
retirement accounts. Call Fidelity Client Services for more
information.
