I think you should - Diversification is a good idea, and REITs are a good alternative to long-term equity funds - the high performance and high volatility () such as stocks, but not necessarily in the same way. Thus, long-term (up to them to 59.5), is probably a good performance from the combination received from REITs, the holdings of shares with high market capitalization of small cap and international stocks. A quarter of their 401k would be reasonable for each, then move into bonds (stability), as you approach retirement.

Good luck,

Doug

My 401 (k) are not REITs, but they are certainly on my Roth IRA. Despite the collapse of the housing market, I still make a profit.

REITs themselves. I wish I had this option in my 401k, but many people do not. Good for your business, which includes REITs.

However, if you go to a zero investment in REITs now be careful - perhaps now is not the best time to take it with both feet.

SPLM vary so it is difficult to categorize as good or bad.
