When Shiga toxin is released from an E. coli O157:H7 bacterium, it can translocate to organs other than the digestive tract such as the kidneys and central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). This can cause hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and/or thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) .
A strategy called dollar-cost averaging can help reduce risks surrounding an asset falling in price. The concept is straightforward - you invest a fixed amount of money in an asset once every fixed time period.
In the following month, the goal would be to have account holdings of $2,400. This pattern continues to be repeated in the following month. The main goal of value averaging is to acquire more shares when prices are falling and fewer shares when prices are rising. This happens in dollar cost averaging as well, but the effect is less pronounced.
