Intel recently announced that it will ‘close’ the Pimco Total Return Institutional Class (Pimco Fund) as an investment choice in plans ‘core’ offering. If you participate in Intel’s 401k plan and have shares in the Pimco Fund, you should have received notice from Intel regarding your options. In this article, I will drill down into the Pimco Fund and compare that fund to other ‘core’ choices available. For the purposes of this article, I am limiting discussion of choices available inside Intel’s 401k plan, excluding any 401k Serplus options. If you’d like more information on Serplus options, feel free to email me. Disclosure: I currently hold share of the Pimco Total Return fund in my Intel 401k.
