New to this so any guidance is appreciated. Currently have my Roth 401k, Roth IRA, and HSA all through fidelity. 401k is invested my target retirement year fund. Both ira and hsa are fully in FXAIX, Fidelity’s 500 index fund. Is this fine? Obviously I know investing and saving is good but still learning the ins and outs

I usually pick SP500 tracker over target date funds, but yeah that’s fine.

Yea, Target date fund is a little too conservative for me, but that's fine to start and if you are lazy (no shame in it). It's a good move.

Otherwise look for something that tracks the overall market.

Echo that target date funds are typically too conservative, and oftentimes have much higher expenses.
