Investment Risk Disclosure
General Investment Risks
Investing in financial markets involves inherent risks, including but not limited to the potential loss of principal. The value of investments may rise or fall due to market conditions, interest rate changes, economic factors, or other external influences. Past performance is not indicative of future results, and there are no guarantees of profitability.
Market Volatility
Market prices of securities and other investments can be volatile and may fluctuate significantly. Such changes may result in substantial losses, especially over short time periods. Investments in certain sectors or industries may be subject to higher volatility.
Cryptocurrency-Specific Risks
Investing in cryptocurrencies carries unique risks due to their speculative nature, regulatory uncertainty, and high market volatility. Additional risks include:
• Regulatory and legal changes that may affect the value or legality of digital assets.
• Cybersecurity risks, including hacking and theft.
• Limited historical data, which increases unpredictability.
• Illiquidity or lack of market depth in certain digital assets.
Non-Diversification Risks
Concentrated investments in a single security, industry, or asset class may increase risk exposure. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against losses in declining markets.
Liquidity Risks
Certain investments may have limited liquidity, making it difficult to sell or trade them at favorable prices. This may result in substantial delays or the inability to liquidate positions when needed.
Leverage and Margin Risks
Using leverage or margin to enhance returns can amplify losses, potentially exceeding the initial investment amount. Leverage strategies involve significant risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
Tax Implications
Investors should consider the tax implications of their investments. Upside Lab Advisors does not provide tax advice. We recommend consulting with a qualified tax professional regarding your specific tax circumstances.
No Guarantee of Investment Success
While we strive to provide sound investment strategies based on thorough research and analysis, no investment is free from risk. Clients should carefully assess their financial situation, investment objectives, and risk tolerance before proceeding with any investment strategy.
Client Responsibility
It is the client’s responsibility to fully understand the risks associated with their investment choices. Upside Lab Advisors will make reasonable efforts to explain risks and provide guidance, but clients must ultimately make their own investment decisions.
