[quote=Anonymous]If a 529 is using a target fund - which many of them do - they get pretty conservative as your kid nears college age. The idea being that having a lot of bonds will reduce the risk of getting walloped by the stock marked when you’re close to starting tuition payments. However this has been an unusual year - the bond marked has been walloped along with stocks. Makes for some ugly 529 statements this year for the folks who thought their conservative accounts would hold up ok. [/quote]
