What this option is

49% of your money is in growth assets.

The remaining 51% is in defensive assets such as bonds and cash. That puts this option in the Conservative / Balanced band, typically used for 5-7 years or longer.

Caveat: Higher growth means more potential upside over the long run, but also more volatility year to year. This option's risk label expects a negative annual return about 1 in 8 years.
