Important Information
This is for informational purposes only, is not a solicitation, and should not be considered investment, legal, or tax advice. The information in this report has been drawn from sources believed to be reliable, but its accuracy is not guaranteed, and is subject to change. Investors seeking more information should consult with their financial advisor.
Investments are not FDIC insured, not bank guaranteed, and can lose value. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Asset allocation cannot eliminate the risk of fluctuating prices and uncertain returns. There is no guarantee that a diversified portfolio will outperform a non-diversified portfolio. No investment strategy, such as asset allocation, can guarantee a profit or protect against loss. Actual client results will vary based on investment selection, timing, and market conditions. It is not possible to invest directly in an index. Investments in equities, bonds, options, and other securities, whether held individually or through mutual funds and exchange traded funds, can decline significantly in response to adverse market conditions, company-specific events, changes in exchange rates, and domestic, international, economic, and political developments. Investments in bonds and fixed income related securities involve market and interest rate risk (prices can decline, if interest rates increase), and default risk (an issuer being unable to repay principal and interest).
