About CMFAX

American Funds Mortgage Fund Class 529-A is a fixed-income mutual fund that seeks to provide current income and capital preservation. Its core strategy centers on investments in mortgage-backed obligations, with approximately 88.5% of net assets allocated to these securities as of June 2025. The portfolio emphasizes bonds backed by U.S. government agencies, minimizing credit risk and aligning the fund with the intermediate government bond category. Other notable holdings include U.S. Treasury bonds and notes, as well as a modest allocation to asset-backed obligations. The fund maintains an effective duration of around 6.2 years, which balances interest rate sensitivity with income potential. Managed by a team of experienced professionals leveraging analyst-driven research, this fund pays monthly dividends and is particularly relevant for investors seeking bond exposure focused on the U.S. housing and mortgage sector. With over $11 billion in assets and a portfolio diversified across more than 68 issuers, it plays a significant role in the fixed-income segment by offering access to agency-backed mortgage securities, supporting both diversification and potential income stability in broader portfolio construction.
