I didn't know that the SNP500 had such rules, but I'm so happy they didn't cave.

I hope people sue the indexes for changing the rules. Im not sure its possible but it really makes an index meaningless if its not consistent.

Nasdaq and Russel caved though. I don't know if there is a way to avoid them in our 401k.

You should have the ability to select the investments in your 401k.

Every 401k I and my wife have had let us set which index, but would rebalance itself every year because they believe they know better. It’s really annoying, but if you’re familiar with the markets, I would say it’s very necessary. Especially since the default funds will often have fees associated to them.
