I have a Guided Flex Fund (1.35% AUM) with Edward Jones in a non-retirement account. This fund is to supplement my pension. I am 51 and aim to retire at 60. I started this fund in June 2020. Personal rate of returns are approximately 9% (2023 YTD), -19% (2022), 10% (2021), 17% (2020), and -0.68% (since inception, annualized).
What's disappointing to me is the approximate -1% since inception, plus the cost of fees. I have another account with Fidelity. Should I transfer my EJ account to Fidelity? If so, when is the best time?
Details of my portfolio follow. If it's reasonable, should I soldier on?
