Q: Hi team,

Based on the U.S. election result and the change in tone in Washington towards a more pro growth and pro inflation scenario, can you recommend some CDN and U.S. cyclical stocks that could do well in this environment?

Q: Hi Guys,

My 82 year old parent's new financial advisor ( the other one just disappeared without notice) has propose the following for their TFSA:
Mr.; MER Allocation
Fidelity Global Monthly Income F .80% 20%
Fid Monthly Income F .70% 20%
Fiera Income Opportunities F .82% 20%
First Trust Senior Load ETF ? 10%
Northwest Healthcare Property 10%
Pro Real Estate Inv. Trust 10%
Healthcare Leader Inc Fund EFT ? 10%

Mrs.;
Dynamic Blue Chip Eq. Fund FE ? 30%
Dynamic Global Value Fund DSC ? 3%
Dynamic Stragic Yield Fund LL ? 21%
Fidelity Strategic Income Fund F .75% 26%
Cibc Cdn Equity Auto ? 6%
CI High Income FE ? 8%
CI High Income Dsc ? 6%

Both are low income and live off their dividends.

What I am looking for is a general answer; yes it looks OK or are they still paying way too much for fees (the advisor is charging 1% + to handle their investments).

thanks,

Jim
