Wall Street Journal on Pension Issues

Today's edition of the Wall Street Journal contains these three articles on pension funding and accounting:

  • "FedEx's Accounting for Pensions Puts Spotlight on Opaque Rules", an article by Tiffany Kary which highlights how pension accounting is causing concerns among Wall Street analysts.

  • "A Pension 'Guaranty,'" an op-ed on how the PBGC's deficit could become a crisis if Congress does not act.

  • And this very useful article by Jonathan Clements for those investing their 401(k) assets: "The Copycat School of Investing: Running Your Retirement Plan Like a Pro."
