(Eric, aged 28, currently works for an accounting firm. He still lives with his parents but is saving to buy a place of his own. Seven years ago, his grandparents gave him a significant cash gift following his college graduation. He deposited it into a segregated fund that invests in the natural resources sector. However, real estate prices are rapidly increasing. Eric is concerned that if he does not buy a place in the next three to five years, it might become altogether unaffordable. In addition, the shares of the segregated fund he holds have seen a sharp drop in market value two years ago and they have not recovered yet. Eric questions his current choice of investment and asks his life insurance agent if he should switch to a different type of segregated fund.
What should the agent recommend?)
