Reevaluating 401K - options

{"summary": "Commenter advises starting from a desired overall asset allocation, then deciding whether each account mirrors it or tilts by asset class for tax efficiency or limited fund menus. They argue there is no reason to be less diversified than total world equities, suggest achieving near-100% equities with global coverage via VLXVX in the 401k, VT in Roth IRA, and US+International in taxable, and note FXAIX equals VOO while VTI adds only slight diversification not worth realizing taxable gains.", "reason": "Provides a coherent, actionable portfolio construction argument with specific funds and rationale.", "ideas": [{"symbol": "VLXVX", "direction": "watch", "thesis": "The author argues an investor can be very nearly 100% equities with total global coverage by selecting just the VLXVX 2065 fund in the 401k, VT in the Roth IRA, and a US plus International fund in taxable. The mechanism is that the far-dated TDF plus total-world funds deliver global equity exposure with minimal bonds across the whole portfolio.
