Jun. 30, 2026 |
|---|---|
| Allocation Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Allocation Risk: the risk that the Fund could experience losses as a result of less than optimal or poor asset allocation decisions. The Fund could miss attractive investment opportunities by underweighting markets that subsequently experience significant returns and could lose value by overweighting markets that subsequently experience significant declines. There is no guarantee that the Fund's asset allocation strategy will be successful or that the markets in which the Fund invests will perform as expected |
| Acquired Fund Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Acquired Fund Risk: the risk that the Fund's performance is closely related to the risks associated with the securities and other investments held by the Acquired Funds and that the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment objective will depend upon the ability of the Acquired Funds to achieve their respective investment objectives. Investments in Acquired Funds that are exchange-traded funds are also subject to market risk, tracking error, the potential for trading at a discount or premium to their net asset value, bid/ask spread costs as well as the risks of the underlying securities they hold. In addition, the Fund’s performance will be reduced by the Fund’s proportionate amount of the expenses of any Acquired Funds in which it invests The following risks are principal risks of investing in the Fund that include risks from direct investments and/or indirect exposure through investment in Acquired Funds. |
| Equity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Equity Risk: the risk that the value of equity or equity-related securities, such as common stocks and preferred securities, may decline due to general market conditions which are not specifically related to a particular company or to factors affecting a particular industry or industries. Equity or equity-related securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities. In addition, preferred securities may be subject to greater credit risk or other risks, such as risks related to deferred and omitted distributions, limited voting rights, liquidity, interest rates, regulatory changes and special redemption rights |
| Dividend Oriented Stocks Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Dividend-Oriented Stocks Risk: companies that have paid regular dividends to shareholders may decrease or eliminate dividend payments in the future. A decrease in dividend payments by an issuer may result in a decrease in the value of the security held by the Fund or the Fund receiving less income. In addition, equity securities with higher dividend yields may be sensitive to changes in interest rates, and as interest rates rise, the prices of such securities may fall. The Fund's use of a dividend capture strategy (i.e., purchasing an equity security shortly before the issuer pays a dividend and selling it shortly thereafter) exposes the Fund to higher portfolio turnover, increased trading costs, the potential for capital loss, particularly in the event of significant short-term price movements of stocks subject to dividend capture trading and may result in negative tax consequences |
| Value Investing Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Value Investing Risk: the risk that value stocks may decrease in price or may not increase in price as anticipated by PIMCO if they continue to be undervalued by the market or the factors that PIMCO believes will cause the stock price to increase do not occur |
| Foreign Non US Investment Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Foreign (Non-U.S.) Investment Risk: the risk that investing in foreign (non-U.S.) securities may result in the Fund experiencing more rapid and extreme changes in value than a fund that invests exclusively in securities of U.S. companies, due to smaller or less developed markets, differing financial reporting, accounting, corporate governance and auditing standards, increased risk of delayed settlement of portfolio transactions or loss of certificates of portfolio securities, and the risk of unfavorable U.S. or foreign government actions, including nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes, diplomatic developments, trade restrictions (including tariffs) or the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures. Foreign securities may also be less liquid and more difficult to value than securities of U.S. issuers |
| Emerging Markets Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Emerging Markets Risk: the risk of investing in emerging market securities, primarily increased foreign (non-U.S.) investment risk |
| Sovereign Debt Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Sovereign Debt Risk: the risk that investments in fixed income instruments issued by sovereign entities may decline in value as a result of default or other adverse credit events resulting from an issuer’s inability or unwillingness to make principal or interest payments in a timely fashion |
| Market Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Market Risk: the risk that the value of securities owned by the Fund may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to a variety of factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries or sectors, including geopolitical events such as war, military conflict, acts of terrorism, social or political unrest, and the imposition of or threatened imposition of tariffs and other trade barriers, which could disrupt securities markets and adversely affect global economies and markets |
| Issuer Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Issuer Risk: the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons related to the issuer, such as management performance, changes in financial condition or credit rating, financial leverage, reputation or reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services |
| Interest Rate Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Interest Rate Risk: the risk that fixed income securities and dividend-paying equity securities will fluctuate in value due to changes or the anticipation of changes in interest rates; a fund with a longer average portfolio duration will be more sensitive to changes in interest rates than a fund with a shorter average portfolio duration. Factors such as government and central bank policy, inflation, the economy, and the market for bonds can impact interest rates and yields |
| Call Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Call Risk: the risk that an issuer may exercise its right to redeem a fixed income security earlier than expected (a call). Issuers may call outstanding securities prior to their maturity for a number of reasons including declining interest rates, changes in credit spreads and improvements in the issuer’s credit quality. If an issuer calls a security that the Fund has invested in, the Fund may not recoup the full amount of its initial investment or may not realize the full anticipated earnings from the investment and may be forced to reinvest in lower-yielding securities, securities with greater credit risks or securities with other, less favorable features |
| Credit Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Credit Risk: the risk that the Fund could experience losses if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security, the counterparty to a derivative contract or a repurchase agreement, a borrower of portfolio securities or the issuer or guarantor of collateral, is unable or unwilling, or is perceived (whether by market participants, rating agencies, pricing services or otherwise) as unable or unwilling, to meet its financial obligations |
| High Yield and Distressed Company Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | High Yield and Distressed Company Risk: the risk that high yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (commonly known as “junk bonds”) and securities of distressed companies may be subject to greater levels of market, credit, issuer and liquidity risks. Securities of distressed companies include both debt and equity securities. High yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies are considered primarily speculative by rating agencies with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments. Distressed companies may be engaged in restructurings, bankruptcy proceedings or other financial difficulties, which may cause the value of their securities to fluctuate rapidly or unpredictably |
| Currency Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Currency Risk: the risk that foreign (non-U.S.) currencies may fluctuate in value relative to the U.S. dollar, which can affect the value of the Fund’s investments in foreign (non-U.S.) currencies or in securities that trade in, and receive revenues in, or in derivatives that provide exposure to, foreign (non-U.S.) currencies |
| Real Estate Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Real Estate Risk: the risk that the Fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) or real estate-linked derivative instruments will subject the Fund to risks similar to those associated with direct ownership of real estate, including risks related to losses from casualty or condemnation, changes in local and general economic conditions, fluctuations in supply and demand, interest rate changes, availability of mortgage financing and refinancing, defaults by borrowers or tenants, zoning laws, regulatory limitations on rents, property taxes, insurance costs, lack of availability of insurance coverage, and operating expenses. The Fund’s investments in REITs or real estate-linked derivative instruments subject it to management and tax risks. In addition, REITs that are privately held or not traded on a national securities exchange may subject the Fund to liquidity and valuation risk |
| Liquidity Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Liquidity Risk: the risk that a particular investment may be difficult to purchase or sell and that the Fund may be unable to sell investments at an advantageous time or price or achieve its desired level of exposure to a certain sector. Liquidity risk may result from the lack of an active market, reduced number and capacity of traditional market participants to make a market in fixed income securities, credit tightening and may be magnified in changing interest rate environments or other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal, causing increased supply in the market due to selling activity. The liquidity of the Fund’s shares may be constrained by the liquidity of the Fund’s portfolio holdings |
| Leveraging Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Leveraging Risk: the risk that certain transactions of the Fund, such as reverse repurchase agreements, loans of portfolio securities, and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, and derivative instruments, may give rise to leverage, magnifying gains and losses and causing the Fund to be more volatile than if it had not been leveraged. This means that leverage entails a heightened risk of loss. The use of leverage may also increase the Fund’s sensitivity to interest rate changes and other market risks |
| Management Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Management Risk: the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by PIMCO, including the use of quantitative models or methods, will not produce the desired results and that actual or potential conflicts of interest, legislative, regulatory or tax restrictions, policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to PIMCO in connection with managing the Fund and may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved |
| Small Cap and Mid Cap Company Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Small-Cap and Mid-Cap Company Risk: the risk that the value of securities issued by small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies may fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, due to narrow markets and limited managerial and financial resources |
| Derivatives Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Derivatives Risk: the risk of investing in derivative instruments (such as forwards, futures, options, swaps and structured securities) and other similar investments, including leverage, liquidity, interest rate, market, counterparty (including credit), operational, legal and management risks, and valuation complexity. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar investment may not correlate perfectly with, and may be more sensitive to market events than, the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the initial amount invested. Derivatives used for hedging or risk management may not operate as intended or may expose the Fund to additional risks. Changes in the value of a derivative or other similar instrument may also create margin delivery or settlement payment obligations for the Fund. The Fund’s use of derivatives or other similar investments may result in losses to the Fund, a reduction in the Fund’s returns and/or increased volatility. Non-centrally-cleared over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives or other similar investments are also subject to the risk that a counterparty to the transaction will not fulfill its contractual obligations to the other party, as many of the protections afforded to centrally-cleared derivative transactions might not be available for non-centrally-cleared OTC derivatives or other similar investments. The primary credit risk on derivatives or other similar investments that are exchange-traded or traded through a central clearing counterparty resides with the Fund's clearing broker or the clearinghouse. Changes in regulations relating to a registered fund’s use of derivatives and related instruments could potentially limit or impact the Fund’s ability to invest in derivatives, limit the Fund’s ability to employ certain strategies that use derivatives or other similar investments and/or adversely affect the value of derivatives or other similar investments and the Fund’s performance |
| Model Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Model Risk: the risk that the Fund’s investment models used in making investment allocation decisions may not adequately take into account certain factors, or may contain design flaws or faulty assumptions, and may rely on incomplete or inaccurate data inputs, any of which may result in a decline in the value of an investment in the Fund. The performance of the investment models may be impacted by software or other technology malfunctions, human error, issues related to the potential use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI), programming inaccuracies, power loss, and other events or circumstances, which may be difficult to detect and may be beyond the control of the Fund |
| Mortgage Related and Other Asset Backed Securities Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk: the risks of investing in mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including interest rate risk, extension risk, prepayment risk and credit risk. The Fund may invest in any tranche of mortgage-related and other asset-backed securities, including junior and/or equity tranches (to the extent consistent with the Fund's guidelines), which generally carry higher levels of the foregoing risks |
| Short Exposure Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Short Exposure Risk: the risk of entering into short sales or other short positions, including the potential loss of more money than the actual cost of the investment, and the risk that the third party to the short sale or other short position will not fulfill its contractual obligations, causing a loss to the Fund |
| Exchange Traded Fund Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Exchange-Traded Fund Risk: the risk that an exchange-traded fund may not achieve its investment objective, among other reasons, because of regulatory restrictions, including, for example, exchange rules, market prices of shares of an exchange-traded fund may fluctuate rapidly and materially, or shares of an exchange-traded fund may trade significantly above or below net asset value, any of which may cause losses to the Fund invested in the exchange-traded fund |
| Tracking Error Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Tracking Error Risk: the risk that the portfolio of a Fund that seeks to track the investment results of an underlying index may not closely track the underlying index for a number of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs operating expenses, which are not applicable to the underlying index, and the costs of buying and selling securities, especially when rebalancing the Fund’s portfolio to reflect changes in the composition of the underlying index. Performance of the Fund and the underlying index may vary due to asset valuation differences and differences between the Fund’s portfolio and the underlying index due to legal restrictions, cost or liquidity restraints. The risk that performance of the Fund and the underlying index may vary may be heightened during periods of increased market volatility or other unusual market conditions. In addition, a Fund’s use of a representative sampling approach may cause the Fund to be less correlated to the return of the underlying index than if the Fund held all of the securities in the underlying index |
| Indexing Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Indexing Risk: the risk that the Fund that seeks to track the investment results of an underlying index is negatively affected by general declines in the asset classes represented by the underlying index |
| Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Collateralized Loan Obligations Risk: the risk that investing in collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”) and other similarly structured investments exposes the Fund to heightened credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, market risk and prepayment and extension risk, as well as the risk of default on the underlying asset. In addition, investments in CLOs carry additional risks, including, but not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) risks related to the capability of the servicer of the securitized assets; (iv) the risk that the Fund may invest in tranches of CLOs that are subordinate to other tranches; (v) the structure and complexity of the transaction and the legal documents may not be fully understood at the time of investment and could lead to disputes with the issuer or among investors regarding the characterization of proceeds or unexpected investment results; and (vi) the CLO's manager may perform poorly |
| Turnover Risk [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | Turnover Risk: the risk that high levels of portfolio turnover may increase transaction costs and taxes and may lower investment performance |
| Risk Lose Money [Member] | |
| Prospectus [Line Items] | |
| Risk [Text Block] | It is possible to experience losses on an investment in the Fund. |
| Risk Not Insured Depository Institution [Member] | |
