    I saw this list in the M* article. Pretty hard to create a more obvious list than this for suggested core holdings.

    Lemme get this straight: Buy a Total Stock Market index and/or S&P 500 Index for your core holding? Duh.

    Moving past the obvious, if you remove ALL of the (unbelievable number of) Total Stock Market Index and S&P 500 Index, what do you really have?

    One that you have is OAKMX, a 2-star, dog of a fund that's been mired in 3+ consecutive years of horrific underperformance, that you couldn't pay me to own. Pretty much ditto on FMIHX which is already DOWN 3+% YTD.

    The author should have just stuck with the obvious.

    If you evaluate these funds through the full market in 2020, the list may get considerable smaller. FMI funds, for example, was 3 alarm funds last years as noted on this discussion board
