When you pull back the curtain to see what is inside a target-date fund, there are thousands of individual companies. To help visualize some of the top holdings, we created a graph that illustrates the Vanguard Target Retirement 2045 Fund (VTIVX).
Over time, target-date funds adjust their holdings and asset allocation (stocks/bonds/cash) based on your retirement age. But for now, we hope this snapshot clarifies some of the largest companies inside the Vanguard Target Retirement 2045 Fund.
