This income-oriented balanced fund offers exposure to U.S. and foreign stocks and investment-grade bonds. Balanced funds typically offer a higher allocation to stocks; however, this fund is unique in allocating about one-third to stocks and two-thirds to bonds. Because it invests in U.S. and foreign stocks and investment-grade bonds, the fund is subject to both currency risk and country risk. The fund’s stock holdings are focused on companies that have historically paid a larger-than-average dividend or that have expectations of increasing dividends. This focus may provide a higher quarterly income distribution than non-income-focused balanced funds. Investors with a long-term time horizon who have a goal of steady income and who are willing to accept modest movement in share price may wish to consider this fund.
