An investment adviser suggests that his client, Arnold, a 74-year old gentleman, should consider a reallocation of the assets in his portfolio. The adviser tells Arnold that he has far too much invested in bonds, which don’t earn as much as stocks. He advises Arnold to take 80% of the money he has in bonds and invest it in an aggressive growth mutual fund that has provided an average annual return of 40% over the past three years. Arnold is impressed and follows this advice. Shortly thereafter, there is a steep drop in the market in general, and the net asset value of the aggressive growth mutual fund falls 85%.

Does Arnold have any remedies available to him?
