I've had two meetings with Fidelity. I'm in the process of rolling over my 260K 401K to them (waiting for the check). The first meeting they recommended the Fidelity Asset Manager 20% fund. Prior to my second meeting I received their managed fund proposal:
Domestic Large Growth Stock Funds: 11%
- 3.0% John Hancock US Global Leaders Growth Fund
- 3.0% Marsico Focus Fund
- 2.5% T. Rowe Price Growth Stock Fund
- 2.5% Fidelity Advisor Diversified Stock Fund
Domestic Large Blend Stock Fund: 2.0%
- 2.0% Legg Mason Value Trust
Domestic Large Value Stock Fund: 3.0%
- 3.0% Goldman Sachs Large Cap Value Fund
Domestic Small Blend Styock Fund: 2.0%
- 2.0% PAS Small Cap Fund of Funds
Other: 9.0%
- 3.0% Merger Fund
- 3.0% Fidelity Real Estate Income Fund
- 3.0% PIMCO Commodity Real Return Strategy
Foreign Stock Funds: 4.0%
- 2.0% PAS International Fund of Funds
- 2.0% PIMCO Foreign Bond Fund (Unhedged)
Bond Funds: 59%
- 15% Fidelity Investment Grade Bond
- 13% PIMCO Total Return Fund
- 8.0% Fidelity Total Bond Fund
- 7.0% Metropolitan West Low Duration Bond Fund
- 5.0% Fidelity Mortgage Securities Fund
- 4.0% Fidelity Capital & Income Fund
- 4.0% Fidelity High Income Fund
- 3.0% T. Rowe Price High Yeild Fund
Money Market/Short-Term Fund: 10%
- 10% PIMCO Short-Term Fund
The cost to manage this portfolio is .9% I have very little experience in this, and want a conservative investment strategy, since I have so little in my 401K. I am 62, and the only other asset I have is 400K equity in my home, which I will sell in four years (I can't sell sooner). I don't have a lot of confidence in my ability to make investment decisions, and I don't have a lot of time to spend on it, since I am caretaker for a family member. Does the above strategy seem reasonable, and am I making a huge mistake in having Fidelity manage my account (I do plan on maybe managing it myself in later years as I learn more and have more time to devote to it).
