my company uses fidelity for their retirement program. they have a index fund as an option, but i'm not sure which fund is like the s&p 500 index fund. my options are spartan u.s. equity index, spartan total market index, spartan international index, spartan extended market index, and spartan 500 index. all of these options are under my index fund group. any input will help, thanks.

sincerely,
ashtray

Well, take a peek at the 3 that would most likely track the S & P 500: US Equity, Total Market and 500 Index here: http://moneycentral.msn.com/investor/research/wizards/FRWCompare.asp?company2=FSMKX&company3=FSTMX&Symbol=FUSEX&DoCompanyLookup=

It should be clear that US Equity and 500 Index both hold nearly 500 stocks and so these are tracking the infamous S & P 500 index.
