A dividend reinvestment plan, or DRIP, is an investment program designed to slowly compound your shares in a chosen company. It works by automatically reinvesting your incoming cash dividends towards the purchase of additional shares. This allows you to slowly compound your dividend returns, drop by drop.

Momentum investing or buying a stock that has outperformed the market in hopes it continues to do so, is often regarded as a high-risk strategy. The outperforming company’s share price reflects optimism that could easily turn to disappointment at the slightest financial setback, and only continued good news can keep the shares from plunging.
