The three funds in the Franklin Allocator series--Franklin Growth Allocation, Franklin Moderate Allocation, and Franklin Conservative Allocation--have undergone notable changes in recent years, with the most recent ones substantially lowering costs and improving the lineup of underlying funds. But an evolving team with a short record of making tactical calls warrant a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Neutral.
