The target funds are good choises for non experience investors or for someone too busy to manage the investments. They have balanced approach to the target retirement ages. Personally, I think that the target funds are not flexible enough for my investment strategies. They really are fund over funds. Rather let someone to choose the % allocation for me, I would like to do it myself. But you are correct, they are suitable for most investors. Actually, for the past 10 years, they have been added to a lot of companies' 401K plan. Thank you.
