Need guidance for selecting 401K funds

Hi,

Recently I got my first Job and now I need to enroll for my 401K lan. Considering ongoing financial crises I was confused where to invest and what should be the proportion. Can anyone guide me for selecting appropriate funds from below given list :
  • INVESCO Retirement stable value fund
  • Templeton Inst Emerging Markets
  • American Beacon International Equity institutional class
  • Northeast Investor trust
  • PIMCO Total Return Funds Institutional class
  • Vanguard 500 institutional index
  • T Rowe price growth stock
  • Boston company large cap
  • Vanguard Windsor II Admiral
  • Columbia small cap value II Z
  • Schwab value advantage MMF institutional shares
  • DFA US Small cap portfolio
  • T. Rowe Price Real Estate fund
Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Abhinav

Abhinav, does your plan offer an "under the mattress" option?

Did you read the advice in the several other "How to select funds in my 401(k)?" threads? The same advice applies to you. What do you think after reading those threads?

Welcome to the forum. Tough bunch, here.

Seriously, though, try the search function, it is pretty useful to read up on similar Q&As to formulate your question.
