Exactly, if you are not diversified, you are vulnerable to all sorts
of things.
Diversification is always good. But in the case of a company pension
plan, it is out of your control. See Enron, they really got stiffed.
So did NorTel and a long list of others.
Get it in you account, in your name so if they go bust, you are not
bust. In my IRA I control diversification and don't end up like GMers
pension that had Carlyle's biggest investment as GM.
