About SABPX
Principal SAM Balanced Portfolio Class A is a moderate allocation mutual fund designed to pursue a balanced total return, combining income and capital appreciation in line with reasonable risk. The fund primarily invests through a "funds of funds" approach, allocating assets across a diverse mix of equity, fixed-income, and specialty funds, with approximately 40–80% in equity funds and 20–60% in fixed-income funds. Its top holdings typically include large-cap U.S. equities, core fixed income securities, and sector-diversified strategies, reflecting a broad exposure to stocks and bonds. To maintain diversification and control risk, no individual holding generally exceeds 30% of assets for equities or 40% for fixed income. Managed by experienced portfolio managers, the fund provides quarterly dividends and may include allocations to international and specialty funds in its mix. The portfolio is well suited for investors seeking a single solution that balances growth potential and income, fitting within the moderate allocation category and closely correlating to the performance of broad market benchmarks.
