Eh? Almost any sane investment prospectus out there will state that it is possible for your investment to lose money and, in the worst case, to be lost entirely. Any prospectus which doesn't say that is almost ipso fact a fraud.
- cookiecaper 10y agoCorrect, there is boilerplate language that states investment is a risk which is found on almost every investment instrument, including small print on commercials that pitch investment products and on the footer of every online stock brokerage. IMO that's different than inserting a projection that reads "TOTAL LOSS". I suppose the article doesn't specify whether the boilerplate language was included or not; I was assuming the author meant additional attention should've been drawn to the risk beyond the boilerplate.
