1Standard Deviation: Standard deviation is a statistical measurement in finance that, when applied to the annual rate of return of an investment, sheds light on that investment's historical volatility. The MSCI EAFE® Index consists of international stocks representing the developed world outside of North America. Morningstar Category Foreign Large Blend portfolios invest in a variety of big international stocks. Most of these portfolios divide their assets among a dozen or more developed markets, including Japan, Britain, France, and Germany. These portfolios primarily invest in stocks that have market caps in the top 70% of each economically integrated market (such as Europe or Asia ex-Japan). The blend style is assigned to portfolios where neither growth nor value characteristics predominate. These portfolios typically will have less than 20% of assets invested in U.S. stocks

About Risk
Growth stocks can face significant price declines if earnings fall short of investor expectations, even if they grow. Early-stage growth companies face higher risks. The main risk of value stock is that a security's price may not reach its expected value. Small and mid-cap securities carry higher risks, including sharp price fluctuations, limited liquidity, and unpredictable changes, especially over the short term. Investing in foreign securities carries risks, such as currency fluctuations, unstable markets, limited information, and political or economic challenges. Emerging markets often face higher risks than developed ones.
