It assumes a 5% return on your investment each year and that the fund&#8217;s operating expenses remain the same. Your actual costs may be higher or lower. It is important to understand that you can lose money by investing in the fund.<br/><br/>Our allocation of assets among asset classes may hurt performance. The prices of stocks and bonds may fall or fail to rise over extended periods of time for a variety of reasons, including both general financial market conditions and factors related to a specific issuer or industry. These risks are generally greater for small and midsize companies. Growth stocks may be more susceptible to earnings disappointments, and value stocks may fail to rebound. Bond investments are subject to interest rate risk, which means the prices of the fund&#8217;s bond investments are likely to fall if interest rates rise. Bond investments also are subject to credit risk, which is the risk that the issuer of the bond may default on payment of interest or principal. Interest rate risk is generally greater for longer-term bonds, and credit risk is generally greater for below-investment-grade bonds (sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk bonds&#8221;), which may be considered speculative. Mortgage-backed investments carry the risk that they may increase in value less when interest rates decline and decline in value more when interest rates rise. We may have to invest the proceeds from prepaid investments, including mortgage- and asset-backed investments, in other investments with less attractive terms and yields. The value of international investments traded in foreign currencies may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in exchange rates. International investments, particularly investments in emerging markets, may carry risks associated with potentially less stable economies or governments (such as the risk of seizure by a foreign government, the imposition of currency or other restrictions, or high levels of inflation or deflation), and may be illiquid. Our use of derivatives may increase these risks by increasing investment exposure (which may be considered leverage) or, in the case of many over-the-counter instruments, because of the potential inability to terminate or sell derivatives positions and the potential failure of the other party to the instrument to meet its obligations.<br/><br/>The fund may not achieve its goal, and it is not intended to be a complete investment program. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. <b>Portfolio turnover</b> 0.02 0.009 0.0108 0.0213 0.0244 0.0196 0.0293 0.0349 0.035 The fund pays transaction-related costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or &#8220;turns over&#8221; its portfolio).

Using qualitative analysis and quantitative techniques, we adjust portfolio allocations from time to time within a certain range for each fund to try to optimize a fund&#8217;s performance consistent with its goal. <br/><br/>The strategic allocation and the range of allowable allocation for the fund are shown below.<br/><br/><div align="left"> <table style="WIDTH: 80%" border="0" cellspacing="0"> <tr> <td width="33%"></td> <td width="33%"></td> <td width="33%"></td></tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b>Class</b>&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b>Strategic Allocation</b>&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b>Range</b>&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b>&nbsp;</b></td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b></b></td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left"><b></b></td></tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">Equity&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">80%&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">65&#150;95%&nbsp;</td></tr> <tr valign="bottom"> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">Fixed-Income&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">20%&nbsp;</td> <td width="33%" nowrap="nowrap" align="left">5&#150;35%&nbsp;</td></tr></table></div><br/>We invest mainly in equity securities (growth or value stocks or both) of U.S. and foreign companies of any size. We may consider, among other factors, a company&#8217;s valuation, financial strength, growth potential, competitive position in its industry, projected future earnings, cash flows and dividends when deciding whether to buy or sell equity investments. We also invest, to a lesser extent, in fixed-income investments, including U.S. and foreign government obligations, corporate obligations and securitized debt instruments (such as mortgage-backed investments). We may consider, among other factors, credit, interest rate and prepayment risks, as well as general market conditions, when deciding whether to buy or sell fixed-income investments. We may also select other investments that do not fall within these asset classes. We may also use to a significant extent derivatives, such as futures, options, certain foreign currency transactions, warrants and swap contracts, for both hedging and non-hedging purposes. <b>Performance</b> <b>Risks</b> It is important to understand that you can lose money by investing in the fund.<br/><br/>Our allocation of assets among asset classes may hurt performance. The prices of stocks and bonds may fall or fail to rise over extended periods of time for a variety of reasons, including both general financial market conditions and factors related to a specific issuer or industry. These risks are generally greater for small and midsize companies. Growth stocks may be more susceptible to earnings disappointments, and value stocks may fail to rebound. Bond investments are subject to interest rate risk, which means the prices of the fund&#8217;s bond investments are likely to fall if interest rates rise. Bond investments also are subject to credit risk, which is the risk that the issuer of the bond may default on payment of interest or principal. Interest rate risk is generally greater for longer-term bonds, and credit risk is generally greater for below-investment-grade bonds (sometimes referred to as &#8220;junk bonds&#8221;), which may be considered speculative. Mortgage-backed investments carry the risk that they may increase in value less when interest rates decline and decline in value more when interest rates rise. We may have to invest the proceeds from prepaid investments, including mortgage- and asset-backed investments, in other investments with less attractive terms and yields. The value of international investments traded in foreign currencies may be adversely impacted by fluctuations in exchange rates. International investments, particularly investments in emerging markets, may carry risks associated with potentially less stable economies or governments (such as the risk of seizure by a foreign government, the imposition of currency or other restrictions, or high levels of inflation or deflation), and may be illiquid. Our use of derivatives may increase these risks by increasing investment exposure (which may be considered leverage) or, in the case of many over-the-counter instruments, because of the potential inability to terminate or sell derivatives positions and the potential failure of the other party to the instrument to meet its obligations.<br/><br/>The fund may not achieve its goal, and it is not intended to be a complete investment program.
