The Fund seeks high total return over time through a combination of capital appreciation and income.
The fund is a fund of funds that invests in shares of other Nuveen mutual funds and ETFs to build a diversified portfolio of equities, fixed-income securities, and direct real estate. The asset allocation shifts gradually from more aggressive to more conservative as the fund approaches its 2030 target retirement year and continues to shift for approximately 30 years thereafter, ultimately reaching a final allocation heavily weighted toward fixed-income and away from equities and real estate. The fund maintains meaningful equity exposure throughout and beyond its target date, which can cause significant fluctuations in value based on equity market performance.

The 4 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.65% | +15.86% | +43.33% | +31.81% | -6.93% | |
| 0.40% | +16.18% | +44.45% | +33.59% | -6.88% | |
| 0.55% | +16.00% | +43.82% | +32.49% | -7.02% | |
| 0.48% | +16.13% | +44.13% | +33.13% | -6.98% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.78pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.36pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
