The advice from financial pros: Don’t panic over Fed hike
Wealth advisers have one word of advice for clients who worry about the potential impact of the Federal Reserve’s first interest-rate increase in nine years: Relax.

On the contrary, he and his handlers cultivated it, firm in the belief that the smiling cynicism of Mike Harris’s Progressive Conservatives had raised voter appetite for a Liberal do-gooder. So, over his next two mandates, Dalton McGuinty–Boy Premier morphed into Premier Dad, a straight-backed paternalist guiding Ontarians past crowded classrooms and marauding pit bulls.
A good investment, because today that aura seems to shield McGuinty from the ugliest scandal of his time in office.
