The Intel 401k Plan has about 50 investment options and 48 are in the scan this year. That is too many for the average employee to evaluate even just once a year. The Intel Plan as you know if you visit this site often has been a Top performer in spite of the Balanced portfolio not being helped by company stock INTC. The scan posted today using 12-31-2011 5yr Market data has only 8 investment options with over 5% of Plan assets. They are all income options. The employee portfolio's largest holdings are all equity funds; INTC at 9% of Plan, FCNTX at 7.7% and FLPSX at 7.3%. That suggests to me that employees near or in retirement may want to consider adding a few income options like PGOVX to balance their equity dominated portfolios.
