From what I found so far, all Fidelity funds (plus others, including some PIMCO funds) would be NTF (no transaction fee) funds, so I can buy them in the brokerage account without paying any trading fees or commissions. Trading Vanguard funds, however, would not be free. Given the fact that, in a 401K, small amounts of new money get invested all the time, trading fees / commissions could add up to significant amounts in the end. So the fact that I could have access to a significant number of NTF funds is a huge plus. I hate paying fees. I still need to check whether there is an annual fee associated with the brokerage account.
