Kiplinger: 105 Most Popular Funds For Your Retirement Savings

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: There's no denying the importance and popularity of 401(k)s for retirement savers. Americans have $4.8 trillion invested in these tax-deferred savings accounts, according to the Investment Company Institute, and there are 52 million active 401(k) participants. BrightScope, a financial-information company that rates retirement-savings plans, compiled this list for Kiplinger of the most popular mutual funds in 401(k) plans based on funds' 401(k) assets under management.

    I am trying to think about why this list should be of interest to anyone except a plan administrator but I suppose you could consider could consider that actively managed funds high on the list probably feel that so much of their client base is in tax sheltered accounts so they don't have to be concerned about avoiding large taxable distributions. In other words this could be considered a list of funds to avoid in taxable accounts.
