- What does CCLAX invest in?
- The Calvert Conservative Allocation Fund functions as a "fund of funds," meaning it pursues its investment goals primarily by distributing its capital among various other Calvert-managed bond and stock portfolios. These underlying funds are carefully selected based on specific investment parameters, including the firm's responsible investing principles. Generally, the Fund allocates between 50% and 80% of its total assets to funds focused on income-generating securities, while dedicating 20% to 50% of its assets to funds primarily invested in equities. Up to 10% of the Fund's net assets may also be held in cash or highly liquid short-term money market instruments.

- Yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return you'd earn from CCLAX if every bond in the portfolio is held to maturity at the current price. CCLAX's YTM is published on the fund's factsheet on the issuer's website — it differs from the trailing-12-month yield because YTM reflects current bond prices rather than historical income paid.
