Take Action

Don’t have the time or inclination to choose your US Airways 401(k) Savings Plan investments? Consider a target-date fund, such as the Pyramis Active Lifecycle Commingled Pool Portfolios. These professionally managed funds automatically adjust the mix of stocks, bonds and cash they hold over time as the target retirement date approaches

These funds are subject to the volatility of the financial markets in the U.S. and abroad and may be subject to the additional risks associated with investing in high yield, small cap and foreign securities

Moderate. You are a moderate investor. This means you are willing to accept some risk in exchange for a potentially higher rate of return.
