401K Allocation

For the past few years, 100% of my 401k contributions including my employer match has gone into a fund that mimics the SP500.

Today, for the first time in two years, I looked at returns for various funds. I noticed Intl Equity, Emerging Markets Equity, and my employer - a large defense contractor - have grossly outperformed the SP500. Their 1-year rate of returns are 32%, 43%, and 42% respectively.

Obviously, I’m salty at the gains I could’ve received. I know my employer’s surge is due to the current administration.

I know no one here has a crystal ball and I shouldn’t time the market, but I would love some advice on how to reallocate my 401k. I’m thinking:

40% - Company stock
40% - Emerging Markets Equity
10% - Intl
10% - SP500

What are your thoughts?



Defense stocks performed well under the previous administration as well.
