12/31/2007: With Low Fees, ETFs Rival Mutual Funds: 401(k) Providers Could Add Option (The Washington Post; free registration required)
Excerpt: "ETFs can be bought and sold throughout the trading day, rather than once a day as with mutual funds. While that could appeal to some investors, it makes it harder for 401(k) overseers. Imagine the difficulty faced by a company with thousands of employees who might want to place trades at various times during the day."
