The vast majority of people are just fine 100% mutual funds.
The more important question is asset allocation ... equities (funds or individual securities) vs bonds ... not M/F vs stocks.
The issue is that most people don't have enough money to build a diversified enough portfolio using individual equities. Not to mention sometimes people tend to get emotionally tied to particular stocks and never want to sell, regarless of how their situation and risk tolerance is changing as they age. Rarely do people get emotionally tied to funds.
