Dollar cost averaging is an investment strategy where you invest a fixed dollar amount per month or year. The benefits are that it is effortless and as shown in the video it limits downside risk, even better, you are happy when stocks drop, and increases the returns, especially when markets are this highly valued. The S&P 500 or other index funds are excellent investments to dollar cost average but also stocks like Berkshire could be an option. 
The sophisticated investor can also apply the DCA investment strategy when considering buying into a falling knife.
