All investments involve risks and are not suitable for every investor. The value of securities may fluctuate, and as a result clients may lose more than their original investment. Margin trading increases the risk of loss and clients’ losses may exceed the deposits paid. The past performance of a security or financial product does not guarantee future results or returns. While diversification may help spread risk, it does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a down market.
