Very true, and at least one of the stocks he was in has since turned in a very decent share price rise as a result of Covid (this article tinyurl.com/y6q3axpa suggests 420% but I think he was in much earlier, at more like 5p a share, and it's now worth £2). I expect there are more like that.
He was caught out not so much by losses as illiquidity, in shares exactly like the above because he was unable to trade them when there was a bit of a run on his fund.
I suppose my point, if there was one, was even IFAs can get fund management wrong, though back to the OP question, a financial review would be really useful as it is largely fact based and may well bring you unexpected benefits and info.
