Model Allocations

Spring 2023


Notes (Apr-23) : Con, Mod, and Mod-Agg Models Updated this Quarter; Scheduled Rebalancing is Recommended (monthly, quarterly, or annually).

*During the conversion to the Empower Recordkeeping System in late April 2022, the MassMutual S&P 400 Index and MassMutual Russell 2000 Indexes were closed and removed from the plan. Participants with assets in those funds had their positions mapped to an age-based JPMorgan SmartRetirement Target Date Fund corresponding closest to the participant's retirement year at age 65. We will be adding Empower S&P Mid Cap 400 Index and Empower S&P  SmallCap 600 Index to the Lake Norman Gymnastics 401(k) Plan shortly to replace the removed investment options. Participants will receive a 30-day Notification prior to the change (TBA), after which participants will need to reallocate the JPM SmartRetirement Target Date Fund assets back to the new Empower MidCap 400 and Small Cap 600 Index Funds manually on the EmpowerMyRetirement.com website or by calling 855-756-4738.

Target Date Funds

Target Date Funds are the Qualified Default Investment Arrangement (QDIA) option in your 401(k) plan. Target Date Funds are diversified risk-based portfolios that will automatically reduce risk as you approach your Target Retirement  Date, assumed to be age 65. The further away from your Target Retirement Date, the more aggressive (higher stock exposure) the fund will be. And the closer to your Target Retirement Date. the more conservative (higher bond exposure) the fund will become. Target Date Funds are Not Guaranteed, will fluctuate in value, and there is risk of loss, particularly in the short-term. 

Choosing a Target Date Fund is easy: When do you plan to retire?

Year you were born + 65 = Approximate Retirement Year | Choose the Target Date Fund closest to your retirement year

Ex. Born in 1972

1972 + 65 = 2037 | JPMorgan SmartRetirement 2035

Investor Note

Mutual fund investment strategies, which include investing in specific sectors, foreign securities (both developed and developing markets), high yield securities, or small and medium sized securities may increase the risk and volatility of the funds. Changes in interest rates may affect the performance of fixed income (bond) funds. The value of bonds have an inverse relationship with changes in interest rates; if rates increase, bond values decrease and vice versa.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of the mutual fund carefully before investing.
