DCA-ing into VWRA every month

I am DCA-ing $2000 into VWRA every month since June this year, however, with VWRA's stock price increasing from US$112 to US$115, I am holding lesser of VWRA's stock every time I am DCA-ing, is this supposed to be a concern for me or should I just continue to DCA?

Also, when I DCA into VWRA every month, the number of VWRA stocks I own would increase, am I correct to say that I should not sell any of the VWRA stocks? Currently own close to 60 of them so far, not too sure if I should sell them or put them into another ETF like S&P 500?

  1. Not really a concern. If you look at a larger time frame, for say, VOO. It was at 200 5 years ago and it closed around 413 yesterday. For most people, if you didn't double the amount you were investing over the 5 years, you'd be getting less shares every month when you DCA-ed. The main target is just to be consistent and to keep adding to your postion to grow your portfolio.
  2. If you're investing for retirement, then yea, you could probably just hold and keep adding to it. As for switching to an S&P500 ETF, what would the point of that be though? The S&P500 and VWRA largely move similarly anyways.
