Company Info

Vanguard Target Retirement 2050 Fund (VFIFX) had its IPO on 2006-06-07, and is traded on NASDAQ stock exchange.

The Vanguard Target Retirement 2050 Fund offers an all-in-one, broadly diversified investment option with an asset allocation that progressively shifts over time. As the designated retirement year draws closer, the fund systematically reduces its exposure to stocks and increases its holdings in bonds. This rebalancing strategy continues for approximately seven years past the retirement date, eventually aligning its asset mix with the Vanguard Target Retirement Income Fund. Prospective investors should be comfortable with the inherent market fluctuations associated with both equity and fixed-income securities. This specific fund is designed for individuals anticipating retirement roughly between 2048 and 2052.
