Important information about investments
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. All investments carry risk and may lose value. Any performance figures referenced in Alpha Summit Content are historical, are not indicative of future results, and do not reflect the experience of any individual investor. Where performance is shown, it may be gross of fees, hypothetical, backtested, or representative of a model rather than an actual account. Hypothetical and backtested results carry inherent limitations because they are prepared with the benefit of hindsight and do not reflect the effect of material economic and market factors on decision making.
Alternative and private market investments
Alternative investments, including private equity, private credit, real estate, venture capital, sports franchise interests, and multi manager fund structures, are speculative and involve a high degree of risk. They are suitable only for investors who can bear the loss of their entire investment. These risks include illiquidity, the absence of a secondary market, long holding periods, limited or no ability to redeem, restrictions on transfer, leverage, concentration, reliance on the skill of underlying managers, limited transparency into underlying holdings, valuations that are estimated rather than observed in a public market, complex tax reporting and potential reporting delays, and fees and expenses that may be higher than those of traditional investments and that will offset returns.
Interval funds and other continuously offered closed end structures provide only limited liquidity through periodic repurchase offers. Those offers may be oversubscribed and prorated, and shares may not be redeemable at the time or in the amount an investor wants.
Options based strategies
Options involve risk and are not suitable for every investor. Writing covered calls generates premium income but caps the upside of the underlying position and does not protect against a decline in the underlying security beyond the premium received. Cash secured puts obligate the writer to purchase the underlying security at the strike price regardless of market value at the time of assignment. Options strategies may not perform as intended in all market environments, and an investor may lose more than the premium received. Before investing in an options based strategy, review the Options Clearing Corporation publication "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options," available from your broker or at theocc.com.
General market and asset class risks
- Equities may decline in value because of real or perceived market, economic, and industry conditions.
- Fixed income investments are subject to market, interest rate, issuer, credit, inflation, and liquidity risk. Bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise, and strategies with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to rate changes.
- Foreign and emerging market investments carry heightened risk from currency movements and from economic and political conditions.
- Commodities carry heightened market, political, regulatory, and natural condition risk and are not suitable for all investors.
- Concentration in a single sector, issuer, industry, or theme increases volatility relative to a broadly diversified portfolio.
- Diversification and asset allocation do not ensure a profit and do not protect against loss.
The above is not a complete representation of the risks of any investment. Any tax treatment or tax benefit referenced in Alpha Summit Content is subject to change, and its availability and value depend on individual circumstances. Alpha Summit is not engaged in rendering tax, legal, or accounting advice. Consult a qualified professional.

Each investor should evaluate their ability to hold an investment for the long term, particularly through market downturns. Some investments and services discussed may not be available in or appropriate for a retirement plan. Contact your financial professional about restrictions associated with your plan.
