Fund Description

The Fund pursues its investment objective by normally investing 35-65% of its assets in equity securities and the remaining assets in fixed-income securities and cash equivalents. The Fund normally invests at least 25% of its assets in fixed-income senior securities.As of September 30, 2023, approximately 61.50% of the Fund’s assets were held in equity securities, including common stocks, and 38.50% of the Fund’s assets were held in fixed-income securities and cash equivalents.The Fund’s equity investments include, but are not limited to, common stocks and other securities with equity characteristics. The Fund’s fixed-income investments include, but are not limited to, government notes and bonds, corporate bonds, commercial and residential mortgage-backed securities, and asset-backed securities. The Fund may also invest in money market instruments. The Fund may invest in fixed and floating rate obligations with varying durations.The Fund will limit its investments in high-yield bonds (also known as “junk” bonds) to 35% of the fixed-income portion of its net assets. The Fund may enter into “to be announced” or “TBA” commitments when purchasing mortgage-backed securities or other securities. The Fund also invests in securities that have contractual restrictions that prohibit or limit their public resale, which may include Rule 144A securities. The Fund may also invest in foreign securities, which may include investments in emerging market securities.The Fund may also invest its assets in derivatives, which are instruments that have a value derived from, or directly linked to, an underlying asset, such as fixed-income securities, currencies, interest rates, or market indices. In particular, the Fund may use forward currency contracts to offset risks associated with an investment, currency exposure, or market conditions and may use interest rate swaps and futures, including Treasury bond futures, to manage interest rate risk, yield curve positioning, and country exposure. The Fund may also use index credit default swaps for hedging purposes (to offset risks associated with an investment exposure, or market conditions), to increase or decrease the Fund’s exposure to a particular market, to manage or adjust the risk profile of the Fund relative to its benchmark index, and to earn income, enhance returns, or preserve capital. The Fund’s exposure to derivatives will vary, and may include derivatives that have characteristics similar to the securities in which the Fund may directly invest.The Fund may take short positions on derivatives instruments.In choosing investments, portfolio management that focuses on the equity portion of the Fund applies a “bottom up” approach. In other words, equity portfolio management looks at companies one at a time to determine if a company is an attractive investment opportunity and if it is consistent with the Fund’s investment policies. Factors that equity portfolio management will consider in its fundamental analysis include a company’s revenue growth potential, returns on capital, and balance sheet flexibility. Equity portfolio management will generally consider selling a security when, among other things, it reaches or exceeds its targeted value, the investment thesis for owning the position has changed, or to rebalance industry or sector weightings.Portfolio management that focuses on the fixed-income portion of the Fund uses research-driven, “top-down” and “bottom-up” factors to identify and manage exposure to risks across sectors, industries, and individual investments. Fixed-income portfolio management evaluates expected risk-adjusted returns on a portfolio and position level by analyzing fundamentals, valuations, and market technical indicators.The Fund may seek to earn additional income through lending its securities to certain qualified broker-dealers and institutions on a short-term or long-term basis, in an amount equal to up to one-third of its total assets of its fixed-income investments as determined at the time of the loan origination.
