You could lose money by investing in a money market fund.  Although some money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, they cannot guarantee they will do so.  An investment in money market funds is not a bank account and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Money market fund sponsors are not required to reimburse the funds for losses, and you should not expect that the sponsors will provide financial support to the funds at any time, including during periods of market stress.
