The C Fund is a heavily diversified investment but it does come with the risks. The C Fund is moderately volatile and is subject to market risk as the price of stocks in the S&P 500 Index rise and fall. Further, you are exposed to inflation risk if your C Fund investment does not grow enough to offset inflation. While there is some volatility, the C Fund is very popular because there is tremendous opportunity for significant dividends as market prices shift.
