Market RecapFor the six months ending September 30, 2020, financial marketsrebounded from the early-2020 outbreak of the coronavirus, which resulted in a shutdown of business activity in many local and foreign economies. Rapid and expansive monetary- and fiscal-policy responses helped to partially offset the economic disruption and coincided with an uptrend for many assets from March 24 through the end of September. Clinical progress on a COVID-19 vaccine breakthrough and signs of economic recoveryalso provided support for riskier assets.

Non-U.S. equities gained 23.48% for the six months, according to the MSCI ACWI (All Country World Index) ex USA Index, reflecting significant ups and downs related to the pandemic and broad U.S.-dollar weakness. From a regional perspective, emerging markets (+30%), Canada (+28%) and Europe ex U.K. (+25%) led the way. Conversely, the U.K. (+8%) and Japan (+20%) trailed the broader index. By sector, information technology (+42%) stood out, followed by consumer discretionary and materials (+40% each). On the other end of thespectrum, the energy sector (+2%) underperformed by the widest margin, while real estate and financials (+11% each) also notably trailed the index.

The Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index gained 33.17%, rebounding from a decline in the first quarter of 2020 (-20.96%). U.S. equities gained 22.09% in the second quarter and added 9.07% in the third quarter. Among sectors, consumer discretionary (+64%) was the top performer, followed by tech (+47%) and materials (+41%). Utilities (+7%) and energy (+8%) lagged. Large-cap stocks topped small-caps, while growth outpaced value. Commodities (+14.62%), as represented by the Bloomberg Barclays Commodities Index Total Return, lagged equities.

Turning to fixed income, U.S. taxable investment-grade bonds (the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index) rose 3.53%. Most spread sectors outperformed Treasuries (+0.65%) ina supportive environment for riskier, higher-yielding assets. Corporate credit (+9.84%) led the way with a nearly double-digit gain. Government-related debt (+4.46%) held in despite relative weakness in agency securities. Securitized sectors were hurt by mortgage-backed securities (+0.78%). Meanwhile, extended (non-core) categories outside the index fared well, especially floating-rate bank loans, high-yield bonds and emerging-marketsdebt. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities also outpaced the broader market. ■

Investment Approach• Fidelity Freedom® Blend Funds (the Funds) are designed

so that the target date referenced in the Fund name is the approximate year when we expect investors to retire and begin gradually withdrawing their investment.

• Except for Fidelity Freedom® Blend Income Fund, each of the Funds seeks high total return until reaching its respective target retirement date; thereafter, each Fund's objective will be to seek high current income and, as a secondary objective, capital appreciation.

• Except for Fidelity Freedom® Blend Income Fund, each Fund's asset allocation strategy becomes increasingly conservative as it approaches its target date – and beyond. Ultimately, the Funds are expected to merge with Freedom Blend Income Fund.

• The Funds employ a robust investment process focused on helping investors solve the challenge of investing through retirement by leveraging the depth and strengthof Fidelity's investment research and resources.

Q&AAn interview with Co-Portfolio Managers Andrew Dierdorf and Brett Sumsion

Q: Andrew, how did the Funds perform for the six months ending September 30, 2020

A.D. The Retail Class shares of each Fund posted a strong absolute return, ranging from 8.38% for Fidelity Freedom® Blend Income Fund to 28.00% for Fidelity Freedom® Blend 2050 Fund. Each Fund topped its Composite index the past six months.

Looking back a bit longer term, Retail Class share returns for the trailing year ranged from 6.45% for Fidelity Freedom® Blend Income Fund to 11.07% for Fidelity Freedom® Blend 2045 Fund. The Funds had mixed results versus Composites the past year, with more-conservative Funds modestly lagging and more-aggressive Funds modestly outperforming.

(For specific Fund results, please refer to the Fiscal Performance Summaries.)

Q: What factors had the greatest influence on the Funds' absolute results the past year

A.D. All the asset classes that the Funds invest in generated a positive return, led by strong results in global equity markets, credit-sensitive fixed-income securities and commodities.

The strong performance of riskier asset classes extended a rally that began in late March of this year, following a steep decline beginning in late February. These assets got some support from a historically rapid and expansive U.S. fiscal-policy response to the COVID-19 pandemic that was intended to help offset the economic disruption it caused.

Aggressive monetary policies by the U.S. Federal Reserve, aswell as other central banks around the world, also offered support for the capital markets. As the period progressed, governments around the world reopened their economies on various levels, some fully open and others partially open with business restrictions. This activity led to a rebound in economic growth in the U.S. and abroad.

In addition, many companies made progress on potential treatments and vaccines for COVID-19, which improved the economic outlook and boosted investor sentiment.

Q: What should shareholders take away from the strong performance of the Funds

A.D. I think it's important to recognize that the elevated volatility we've seen year to date is a reminder that diversification is an important tool in managing portfolio risk. Our portfolio management team strives to include asset classes that offer independence of returns, so that the Funds are resilient over short- and long-term horizons and balance many risks. Diversification is more prominent in the funds as investors move through their lifecycle and as their time horizon shortens. We continue to focus on the long-term investment objective of the strategies, drawing on decades of experience to help us navigate periods of volatility. It's important to keep in mind that the strategic asset allocation of the Funds is designed to endure these ups and downs.

Further, the past several years our strategic investment decisions have emphasized increased portfolio diversification by reducing equity exposure and adding long-term U.S. Treasury bonds and Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) to the strategic asset allocation. While we didn't anticipate the onset of a pandemic in 2020, these investment decisions reflected our view of increasing uncertainty in the capital markets.

Q: Brett, which underlying investments contributed most to the Funds' performance

B.S. Investments in non-U.S. equities helped the most versusComposite indexes. Fidelity® Series Emerging Markets Fund (+34.75%) was the top underlying fund-level contributor, as ittopped the 29.36% gain of its benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. A position in Fidelity® Overseas Fund (+29.25%) also stood out, outpacing its benchmark, theMSCI EAFE Index (+20.52%). The Funds got a similar boost from Fidelity® Series International Value Fund (+20.73%), which topped the MSCI EAFE Value Index (+13.92%).

The Funds' investments in U.S. equities also notably contributed to relative performance. Here, our stake in Fidelity® Series Blue Chip Growth Fund (+62.02%) added the most value, as the fund outperformed the Russell 1000® Growth Index (+44.74%).

An investment in Fidelity® Series Investment Grade Bond Fund (+7.55%) also helped, as it, too, topped its benchmark, the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (+3.53%). Conversely, the biggest relative detractor was Fidelity Series Large Cap Stock Fund (+22.26%), which trailedthe 31.31% advance of its benchmark.

Q: How did active asset allocation positioning influence the Funds' relative performance

B.S. It modestly detracted. We made decisions that were helpful, such as underweighting weaker-performing

investment-grade bonds and overweighting outperforming non-U.S. equities. However, the boost related to these favorable decisions was more than offset by others. Specifically, underweighting U.S. equities, which gained 33.17% according to the Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index, held back results versus Composites. Overweighting short-term debt securities (+0.06%) also hurt, as did an allocation to inflation-protected debt securities, as this asset class lagged the Composite indexes the past six months.

Q: Turning back to you, Andrew, what's your outlook as of September 30

A.D. Our view is that the path of COVID-19 and the historic global monetary and fiscal responses to it are likely to have long-lasting effects on the global economy. In the intermediate term, we see opportunities to position the Funds in asset classes trading at a significant discount to our view of fair value. History has shown that markets don't appropriately discount macroeconomic shocks over very short-term periods.

We believe that prices of financial assets can diverge from underlying fair value due to such factors as an overreaction, regimes and cycles, and liquidity preferences, among others.As such, we believe a diversified portfolio that makes use of both a strategic allocation and active management capabilities to manage market dislocations and uncertainty may lead to better outcomes over an extended horizon.

We recognize that it's been a very challenging environment for investors since late February, and it is unsettling when markets are volatile. It's important to recognize that we have been through periods of major market and economic disruption – and eventual recovery – before and have a history of persevering. We continue to focus on the long-term investment objective of the Funds, drawing on decades of experience to help participants achieve their objectives.

Co-Manager Brett Sumsion on the Funds' active asset allocation positioning:

"As of September 30, we maintained the Funds' roughly Composite-neutral allocation to equities and continue to emphasize emerging-markets (EM) equities over U.S. stocks. We believe that valuations for U.S. equities are elevated. EM equities, by comparison, are priced at a significant discount and have favorable growth prospects. The potential for aweaker U.S. dollar following massive fiscal and monetary stimulus, pent-up demand for goods produced by EM countries, and early signs of a China's stabilization and recovery provide a potentially favorable backdrop for EM equities. We are mindful of the geopolitical risks of an overweightallocation to EM, including the U.S.–China trade relationship, and consider these risks in the overall positioning of the portfolios. Among U.S. equities, we favor value funds over growth funds. Our view is that the low rate of U.S. inflation has contributed to investors' preferences for equities with long-dated cash flows, such as growth-oriented equities. An increase in inflation expectations may cause investors to prefer companies with cash flows that will be realized over a shorter time horizon, such as value-oriented equities.

"Inflation-sensitive assets, such as Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) and commodities, remainoverweight in the Funds, based on valuation, and our view that the market has mispriced the potentialfor inflation to rise. EM equities and inflation-sensitive assets remain our largest period-end overweights. These overweights are funded by underweights in U.S. equities and investment-grade bonds, including long-term Treasuries. Inflation-sensitive assets, including TIPS and commodities, offer attractive asset allocation opportunities, in our view. While the markets initially discounted the pandemic as a deflationary shock, we believe that longer-term inflationary pressure may be greater than the market expects. The liquidity provided by accommodative global monetary policy, coupled with rebounding economic activity, may accelerate inflationary pressure. Lastly, we believe that historically low yields on sovereign bonds support an underweight position here, specifically in investment-grade bonds and long-term U.S Treasurybonds."

BROAD ASSET CLASS RETURNS A graphical representation of historical market performance and the variations in returns among asset classes, as represented by thefollowing indexes:

Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Credit Ex US Index Hedged (USD) is a market value weighted index that measures theperformance, hedged in USD, of the global non-US dollar denominated investment-grade corporate fixed-rate debt issues with maturities of one year or more.

Bloomberg Barclays U.S. 1-10 Year Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) Index (Series-L) is a market value-weighted indexthat measures the performance of inflation-protected securities issued by the U.S. Treasury that have a remaining average life between 1 and 10 years.

Bloomberg Barclays U.S. 3 Month Treasury Bellwether Index is a market value-weighted index of investment-grade fixed-rate publicobligations of the U.S. Treasury with maturities of 3 months, excluding zero coupon strips.

Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a broad-based, market-value-weighted benchmark that measures the performance of the investment grade, U.S. dollardenominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market. Sectors in the index include Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, MBS (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM pass-throughs), ABS, and CMBS.

Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Long Treasury Index is a market value–weighted index of investment-grade fixed-rate public obligations of the U.S. Treasury with maturities of ten years or more.

ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Constrained Index is a modified market capitalization–weighted index of US dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the US domestic market. Qualifying securities must have a below investment grade rating (based on an average of Moody's, S&P and Fitch). The country of risk of qualifying issuers must be an FX-G10 member, a Western European nation, or a territory of the US or a Western European nation. The FX-G10 includes all Euro members, the US, Japan, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden. In addition, qualifying securities must have at least one year remaining to final maturity, a fixed coupon schedule and at least $100 million in outstanding face value. Defaulted securities are excluded. The index contains all securities of ICE BofA U.S. High Yield Index but caps issuer exposure at 2%.

Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return measures the performance of the commodities market. It consists of exchange-traded futures contracts on physical commodities that are weighted to account for the economic significance and market liquidity of each commodity.

Dow Jones U.S. Total Stock Market Index is a float-adjusted market capitalization–weighted index of all equity securities of U.S.headquartered companies with readily available price data.

Fidelity Real Estate Income Composite Index is a customized blend of unmanaged indexes, weighted as follows: The ICE BofA US Real Estate Index - 40%; MSCI REIT Preferred Index - 40%; and FTSE NAREIT All REITs Index - 20%.

J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global tracks total returns for the U.S. dollar-denominated debt instruments issued byEmerging Market sovereign and quasi-sovereign entities, such as Brady bonds, loans, and Eurobonds.

MSCI World ex USA Index is a market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the investable equity market performance for global investors of developed markets outside theUnited States.

MSCI Emerging Markets Index is a market capitalization-weightedindex that is designed to measure the investable equity market performance for global investors in emerging markets.

S&P/LSTA Leveraged Performing Loan Index is a market value-weighted index designed to represent the performance of U.S. dollar-denominated institutional leveraged performing loan portfolios (excluding loans in payment default) using current market weightings, spreads and interest payments.

FUND RISKSThe fund is subject to risks resulting from the asset allocation decisions of the Adviser. Pursuant to the Adviser's ability to use an active asset allocation strategy, investors may be subject to a different risk profile compared to the fund's neutral asset allocation strategy shown in its glide path. The fund is subject to the volatility ofthe financial markets, including that of equity and fixed income investments. Fixed income investments entail issuer default and credit risk, inflation risk, and interest rate risk (as interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall and vice versa). This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities. The funds are subject to the risks associated with investing in a passively managed underlying fund in which the passively managed underlying fund's performancecould be lower than an actively managed fund that shifts its portfolioassets to take advantage of market opportunities or lessen the impact of a market decline or a decline in the value of one or more issuers. Leverage can increase market exposure, magnify investmentrisks, and cause losses to be realized more quickly. No target date fund is considered a complete retirement program and there is no guarantee any single fund will provide sufficient retirement income at or through retirement. Principal invested is not guaranteed at any time, including at or after the funds' target dates.

INDICESIt is not possible to invest directly in an index. All indices representedare unmanaged. All indices include reinvestment of dividends and interest income unless otherwise noted.
