Default Re: Setting up my 401K, not sure how to allocate (23yrs old)

I couldn't find tickers for those funds either. There is one for a small-cap fund but I don't think that's an index fund.

The ticker you have for the American Century fund is the correct ticker for the fund but not the class you have. I couldn't find that ticker either. The one you have is for the Institutional class whereas the shares you'll have are an Advisor class. The only difference I could see is that the expense ratio is .25% higher on the Advisor shares. You should be ok to at least track it with the ticker you have.

And like Steve said, the 2% redemption fee is normal for some funds such as int'l or small-cap where they try to discourage people from trying to time the market.
