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 real estate. Its asset allocation automatically shifts from more aggressive to more conservative as its target retirement year of 2045 approaches and for approximately 30 years thereafter, moving from an initial mix of roughly 83% equity, 12% fixed-income, and 5% real estate toward a final allocation of 20% equity, 80% fixed-income, and 0% real estate. Because the fund's returns depend on the performance of the underlying funds it selects, actual allocations may vary up to ten percentage points from stated targets within each asset class.

The 4 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.43% | +22.19% | +61.92% | +49.55% | -8.58% | |
| 0.68% | +21.92% | +60.74% | +47.75% | -8.67% | |
| 0.58% | +22.14% | +61.36% | +48.57% | -8.70% | |
| 0.51% | +22.31% | +61.79% | +49.29% | -8.65% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.79pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.36pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
