About JBALX
Janus Henderson Balanced Fund Class I is an actively managed mutual fund designed to deliver long-term capital growth while prioritizing the preservation of capital and steady income. As a balanced fund in the moderate allocation category, it typically invests 35–70% of assets in equity securities—primarily large-cap growth stocks—while allocating the remaining assets to bonds and cash equivalents. The fund consistently maintains at least 25% of assets in fixed-income senior securities and can invest in a mix of fixed and floating rate obligations, including limited exposure to high-yield bonds. Management employs a dynamic asset allocation strategy, shifting equity and fixed-income weightings based on market conditions. This approach is supported by a collaborative research team covering both equity and fixed income across global sectors. The fund’s diversified portfolio includes holdings in major technology, healthcare, communication services, and government securities, with top investments such as Microsoft, NVIDIA, and U.S. Treasury notes. Janus Henderson Balanced Fund Class I stands out for its long history of providing risk-adjusted returns with lower volatility than a pure equity fund, making it a core holding for investors seeking balanced exposure to both growth and income in their portfolios.
