2025-05-07 10:14:00 ET
Summary
- Fidelity Freedom® Funds (the Funds) are designed so that the target date referenced in the Fund name is the approximate year when investors expect to retire.
- Uncertainty about the direction of U.S. policy weighed on markets in Q1, as investors digested news on tariffs, cuts to government programs, and tighter immigration policy.
- Tariffs were a catalyst for the repricing of non-U.S equities. Non-U.S. markets' fiscally oriented growth narrative, cheaper valuations, and improved earnings estimates drove one of the largest relative-return differences between U.S. and non-U.S. equities in history.
Investment Approach
