Important Disclaimer Regarding the Information We Provide

VizMetrics Inc. is a publisher. You understand that no content published as part of the Services constitutes a recommendation that any particular investment, security, portfolio of securities, transaction, or investment strategy is suitable for any specific person. You further understand that none of the creators or providers of our Services or their affiliates will advise you personally concerning the nature, potential, value, or suitability of any particular investment, security, portfolio of securities, transaction, investment strategy, or other matter. Accordingly, do not attempt to contact them seeking personalized investment advice, which they cannot provide. To the extent any of the content published as part of the Services may be deemed investment advice, such information is impersonal and not tailored to the investment needs of any specific person.

You understand that:

  • the views expressed in the Services are the authors’ own opinions.
  • The Services may contain opinions from time to time with regard to securities mentioned in other Services, and those opinions may differ from those obtained elsewhere in the Services.
  • Trading in securities (including, without limitation, stocks, options, ETFs, and bonds) involves risk and volatility. Past results are not necessarily indicative of future performance.
  • Performance data is supplied by sources believed to be reliable, but calculations based on such data are not guaranteed by these sources, the information providers, or any other person or entity, and may not be complete. Past performance is not an indication of future results.

From time to time, our marketing materials may reference prior articles and opinions we have published. These references may be selective, may reference only a portion of an article or recommendation, and may not be current. As markets change continuously, previously published information and data may not be current and should not be relied upon. Before selling or buying any investment, you should consult with a qualified broker or other financial professional to verify pricing information.

To the extent any of our Services involves a model portfolio or an actual portfolio of investments, such portfolio is chosen by the author in accordance with their stated investment strategy. Your actual results may differ from reported results for reasons including, but not limited to:

  • Performance results do not reflect actual trading commissions you may incur.
  • Performance results do not account for the impact of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity, that may affect your results.
  • You may not have the capital to trade as frequently as the portfolio.
  • The size and timing of your purchase or sale of a stock may affect its price.
