401(k) Plan Investment Menu
Every fund in the plan, grouped by what it actually does — from cash-like stability to long-term growth. Use this as a map, not a recommendation: the right mix depends on your own timeline and comfort with risk.
All-in-one: Target Date Funds
The simplest option. Pick the fund closest to the year you plan to retire, and it automatically shifts from growth-focused to more conservative as that year approaches. Thirteen funds cover retirement dates from today through 2070.
These are Fidelity Freedom® Index Funds — low-cost, index-based, and managed to a "glide path" that gradually gets more conservative over time. A common rule of thumb: choose the fund with the year closest to when you turn 65.
Cash & Stability
The steadiest option in the plan — designed to preserve what you put in, with minimal ups and downs.
Vanguard Federal Money Market Fund
VMFXXInvests in short-term U.S. government securities. Behaves like cash — very low risk, very low expected return.
Bonds
Loans to governments and companies. Bonds typically move less than stocks and provide steady income, cushioning a portfolio when stocks fall.
Vanguard Short-Term Corporate Bond Index Adm
VSCSXInvestment-grade company bonds maturing in 1–5 years. Lower interest-rate risk than longer bond funds.
DFA Inflation-Protected Securities
DIPSXU.S. Treasury bonds whose value adjusts with inflation — a hedge against rising prices.
Vanguard Intermediate-Term Bond Index Adm
VBILXA broad mix of U.S. government and investment-grade corporate bonds, medium-term maturities.
Vanguard Intermediate-Term Investment-Grade Adm
VFIDXActively managed, high-quality corporate and government bonds with a medium-term horizon.
DFA Global Core Plus Fixed Income Instl
DGCFXBonds from the U.S. and abroad, currency-hedged, for broader fixed-income diversification.
Balanced
One fund, two ingredients — a steady, pre-mixed blend of stocks and bonds.
Vanguard Balanced Index Fund Adm
VBIAXRoughly 60% U.S. stocks and 40% U.S. bonds in a single fund — moderate growth with moderate ups and downs.
U.S. Stocks
Ownership stakes in American companies. Higher long-term growth potential, with more short-term ups and downs than bonds.
Fidelity 500 Index Fund
FXAIXTracks the S&P 500 — 500 of the largest U.S. companies.
Schwab Total Stock Market Index
SWTSXOwns the entire U.S. stock market — large, mid, and small companies in one fund.
Vanguard Value Index Fund Adm
VVIAXLarge U.S. companies priced conservatively relative to earnings — a "value" style tilt.
Fidelity Large Cap Growth Index
FSPGXLarge U.S. companies expected to grow faster than average — a "growth" style tilt.
Fidelity Mid Cap Index Fund
FSMDXMid-sized U.S. companies — bigger than small-caps, with more room to grow than large-caps.
Schwab U.S. Small-Cap Index
SWSSXSmaller U.S. companies — historically higher growth potential, and higher volatility.
International Stocks
Ownership stakes in companies outside the U.S. — spreads risk beyond a single country's economy.
Vanguard Developed Markets Index Adm
VTMGXCompanies in established economies like Europe, Japan, and Canada.
Fidelity Emerging Markets Index
FPADXCompanies in faster-growing but less established economies — higher potential, higher risk.
Real Estate
A different kind of growth engine — tied to property markets rather than the broader stock market.
DFA Real Estate Securities Portfolio
DFREXInvests in REITs and real estate companies — residential, commercial, and industrial property.
