Fidelity Limited Term Government Fund (FFXSX)

Overview

The investment fund is designed with a strategic objective aimed at providing a high total return up until its predetermined target retirement date. After reaching this date, the fund shifts its focus towards prioritizing high current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation. This gradual transition in investment strategy is carefully crafted to meet the evolving financial needs of investors as they approach retirement, ensuring a blend of growth potential and income generation. By investing in a diversified portfolio encompassing a range of asset classes through Fidelity® funds, the fund aims to achieve these objectives while managing risk appropriately. This balanced approach facilitates a comprehensive investment solution tailored for long-term financial planning with retirement in view.
