1. Important Notice

PLEASE READ THIS DISCLAIMER CAREFULLY BEFORE USING GLOBAL MONEY INDEX

Global Money Index ("Company") is a data analytics and information platform providing market environment classification, scoring models, and analysis tools. This disclaimer is critical to your understanding of what Global Money Index does and does not do, and the risks associated with using the service.

2. Not Investment Advice

2.1 Informational Use Only

Global Money Index provides informational and educational content only. Nothing provided through Global Money Index constitutes, and should not be interpreted as:

  • Investment advice or recommendation
  • Financial advice or guidance
  • A suggestion to buy, sell, or hold any security, asset, or financial instrument
  • An endorsement of any investment, company, or strategy
  • A substitute for professional financial, legal, or tax advice
  • An offer to sell or solicitation to buy any security

All scores, ratings, indicators, analysis, reports, and insights are provided for informational purposes only to assist with your own independent research and analysis.

2.2 No Financial Advisory Relationship

The Company is NOT a registered investment advisor, financial advisor, broker-dealer, or financial planner. The operator, Taijong Lee, is not a licensed financial professional, and Global Money Index does not provide financial advisory services.

Using Global Money Index does not create a fiduciary relationship between you and the Company. You are not a "client" in any legal or regulatory sense.

2.3 Responsibility for Decisions

You are solely responsible for all financial decisions made using information from Global Money Index. Before making any investment decision, you should:

  • Conduct independent research and due diligence
  • Consult with a qualified, licensed financial advisor, investment advisor, or tax professional
  • Understand the risks associated with any investment
  • Review relevant regulatory filings and official company information
  • Consider your personal financial situation, goals, and risk tolerance

3. Risk Disclosure

3.1 Market Risk

All financial markets carry inherent risk, including:

  • Principal Loss Risk: The value of investments may decline, including below the amount invested
  • Volatility Risk: Asset prices may fluctuate significantly in short periods
  • Liquidity Risk: Assets may be difficult or impossible to sell quickly
  • Currency Risk: International investments face exchange rate fluctuations
  • Geopolitical Risk: Political events, conflicts, and policy changes affect markets
  • Regulatory Risk: Changes in laws and regulations may impact investments
  • Systemic Risk: Broader market or economic crises may affect multiple assets simultaneously

3.2 Algorithm and Data Limitations

Global Money Index's proprietary scoring engines and indicators are subject to limitations:

  • Algorithms are based on historical patterns and assumptions that may not apply to future performance
  • Market data may be delayed, estimated, or subject to correction
  • Unexpected market events may render analysis obsolete
  • Technical errors or system failures may produce inaccurate results
  • No algorithm can reliably determine market movements or future performance

3.3 Past Performance Does Not Indicate Future Results

This is a critical principle in investing:
  • Historical performance of any asset, indicator, or strategy does not guarantee future performance
  • Assets that performed well in the past may underperform in the future
  • Market conditions, interest rates, and economic factors change unpredictably
  • Past correlation between assets may not persist

3.4 Historical Analysis Limitations

Historical analysis results are inherently limited. Past data patterns may not repeat due to:

  • Overfitting: Models optimized for historical data may not perform well in different market conditions
  • Look-Ahead Bias: Analysis may inadvertently use information that was not available at the time of past observations
  • Survivorship Bias: Analysis may focus only on data sets that persisted, excluding those that were discontinued
  • Changed Conditions: Actual market conditions may differ materially from historical periods analyzed

4. No Personalized Analysis

4.1 Generic, Non-Personalized Service

Global Money Index provides generic analysis and tools applicable to all users. The service is NOT personalized to your individual financial goals, risk tolerance, investment timeline, liquidity needs, tax situation, existing portfolio composition, or personal circumstances.

4.2 Algorithmic Suitability Warning

GMI's algorithmic analysis does not and cannot assess your individual investment suitability. What may be a suitable investment for one person may be wholly inappropriate for another. Investment suitability is inherently personal and depends on individual circumstances. You must independently determine whether any investment or strategy identified through Global Money Index is suitable for your personal circumstances.

5. Specific Disclaimers

5.1 Scores and Ratings

Scores, ratings, and rankings provided by Global Money Index:

  • May not reflect qualitative factors, management quality, or competitive positioning
  • Are subject to change as data and assumptions change
  • Are not endorsed by any regulatory authority
  • Should not be the sole basis for investment decisions

A high score does not guarantee positive performance. A low score does not indicate poor future performance.

5.2 Market Data and Indicators

Scoring engines and market indicators:

  • May be based on delayed or estimated data
  • Are subject to technical errors or calculation mistakes
  • May become obsolete or inaccurate due to market events
