Michael, a suggestion. Please check out the Hussman Strategic Growth Fund (HSGFX). You will see that no responsible advisor could advise against investing in it.

Then use it as a test... suggest it and see what this advisor responds. This is a good way to find out whether he's driven primarily by ego and/or commissions rather than your best interests.

============

Hussman seems to have found a very successful low-beta hedging strategy. The Business Week article below is good. The fund has only existed for 27 months. Its assets have grown dramatically because of the performance... $40M on 12/31/01, $170M on 6/30/02 and ~$350M today.
