I just switched companies and set up my new 401k. I don't know much a lot about investing but I know enough to like the ideas of the Boglehead approach. I have a Roth IRA and a taxable account at Betterment.
I understand why you'd want to adjust your ratio of stocks to bonds based on age and risk tolerance, but why would you want to adjust your ratio of capitalization sizes?
The only approach that makes sense to me is to approximate the total market, which I did with the info on this page
https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Approximating_total_stock_market
Of all the choices to make as an investor: bond vs. stock, domestic vs. international, value vs. growth, etc. why am I being given the choice of large/mid/small cap? Especially since my fiduciary doesn't trust me to make other decisions like picking sectors or individual securities.
