"The Fidelity Freedom 2060 Fund provides a target-date asset allocation strategy tailored for investors retiring near 2060."
Executive Summary
The Fidelity Freedom 2060 Fund is a target date portfolio designed to manage asset allocation for investors expecting to retire around the year 2060. The fund seeks high total return prior to reaching its target date by executing a disciplined, multi-asset allocation strategy that gradually transitions to a more conservative posture over time. During the second quarter of 2024, the fund generated a net return of 1.85%, bringing its year-to-date performance to 10.23% and its one-year return to 17.93%. The current portfolio allocation is heavily weighted toward growth assets, with approximately 52.82% allocated to U.S. equities, 41.42% to non-U.S. equities (including developed and emerging markets), and 11.82% to fixed income securities, balanced by a negative short-term debt and net other assets position of -6.06%. Key market and portfolio risks include general broad market volatility across global equity and bond markets, currency exposure from international holdings, and potential risks associated with high-yield and small-cap assets.
