Any recommendations for investment selection in the Accenture 401k Plan? Im 27, single, and risk taker. Currently have 100% of my portfolio invested in Vanguard Institutional 500 Index Fund which has a 7.37% fund return but I was seeing others that had 20%+. Any ideas?

I think you're honestly fine with that but, I would still allocate some to international fund if available. If you do have the opportunity to invest in more riskier equities / funds within your 401k, then make sure to capitalize on any gains and shift them back into your main index fund. You don't want to mess too much with your retirement fund.

Pick something broadly diversified with low fees. The Accenture plans are generally not very good though...

Thanks EY!

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.
