In addition to asset allocation risk, the Lifecycle Funds are subject to the risks associated with the types of securities held by each of their underlying funds. For equity securities, these risks may include market risk, company risk, foreign investment risk, growth investing risk, value investing risk, style risk, and small-cap/mid-cap risk. For fixed-income securities, these risks may include interest rate risk, income volatility risk, credit risk, call risk, prepayment and extension risk, and special risks for inflation-indexed bonds. This fund’s overall risk level should gradually decline as the target allocation shifts more toward fixed income with the approach of the year 2050. For a more complete discussion of these and other risks, please see the prospectus.
