My interest is in scanning 401k portfolios to image the efficient frontier and highlite portfolios that have high risk adjusted returns. The portfolio with highest Sharpe ratio will appear in the scan image for each 401k plan posted.

Williams Companies 401k (IPP) Plan PSDS Scan 12-31-2010
The Williams 401k Plan was not helped by company stock WMB the last 5 years but still had a slightly above average Balanced portfolio return with a 5yr APR of 6.08% and a Sharpe ratio of 1.38. That portfolio's three largest holdings were PTTRX, the Fidelity stable value fund FMIP2 and FFFAX the Fidelity Freedom Income Fund. Target Date Retirement Income Funds have out performed all the Target Date Funds in every Plan I have scanned (several hundred) but employees invest very little in them. If you are near retirement I suggest you pay more attention to fund performance than fund name.
