I prefer FSKAX over it. FZROX distributes dividends annually and has the least number of holdings within the fund.

Stephan Graham did a video on low cost index funds and FZROX seemed like the best one. Literally $0 cost expense ratio. A few of my best friends work at Fidelity and they were on that project. They definitely recommended it.
