Ah, the 401k, the new holy grail for the mutual fund industry.

But not every fund gets the seal of approval from investing experts.

For example, investing publication Kiplinger has published its list of 100 funds deemed good enough for the space.

The listing groups funds in a number of investment categories, including large company, small midsize company, target date funds, bond fund funds, and balanced funds, among others.

Funds that made the grade include a few from Fidelity, such as the Fidelity Growth Company and Fidelity Contrafund.

Vanguard products like the Vanguard Total Stock Market Index, the Vanguard 500 Index, and the Vanguard Institutional Index.

Dodge & Cox's Dodge & Cox Stock funds made the grade, as did Schwab Schwab's Schwab 500 product. The Washington Mutual Investors fund, managed by American Funds, also received kudos.

To read the full list and analyses, go to Kiplinger.
