Sean ..

Very good points .. thanks for pointing that out to me.

"I would guess that the number is may now be as high as $50 billion (the average person puts $2000 in a 401(k) per year and 25 million people are active in plans). This is still a small number compared to mutual fund cash flows."

So then .. when you say that only 1% of the US population contributes to a 401k, is that your guess or is that some published data?

TIA

Gersh

25M people have 1 trillion in 401K plans. 40M are eligible.
about 250 billion are in six big Fidelity funds.
