Transparency and Trust
Investing in securities involves risks, and there is always the potential of losing money when you invest in securities. Neither Commons Capital nor any of its private wealth advisors provide legal, tax or accounting advice. You should consult your legal and/or tax advisors before making any financial decisions. Asset allocation, diversification and rebalancing do not ensure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
