User's responsibility

User is responsible for Users own investment decisions. User understands that the User is assuming full responsibility for any investment decisions. All decisions to act, whether to reallocate, buy or sell, are the sole responsibility of the User. If User ignores its advice to do independent research of ETFs, industries, companies, mutual funds, and stocks, choosing instead to invest solely on information received from CI in any form, User has made a conscious, willing, free, and personal decision to do so. CI assumes no responsibility, and User agrees that under no circumstances will CI be liable for any losses incurred as a result of User’s following any recommendations discussed in any website, newsletter, email or other forms of communication. The actual investment choices are the sole responsibility of the User and may produce a gain or loss of investment capital for that User and/or tax liability.

Reported performance results are hypothetical

Performance information presented in charts and tables by CI unless otherwise noted represent hypothetical performance of the HORIZON™ strategy applied only to the funds included in HORIZON™ Model Portfolio. Model Portfolio performance is hypothetical (it does not reflect trading in actual accounts), assumes that fund trades, ETFs and exchanges are made at the closing price of a fund on both the stated starting and ending date of the reporting period, does not adjust for fund holding or repurchase period restrictions, and is provided for informational purposes only. Actual performance may be higher or lower than the hypothetical performance. Hypothetical or simulated performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results, and actual results may differ from simulated performance being presented on this website.

Portfolios may use proxy and benchmark funds

Historical performance may be calculated assuming that funds representing the current portfolio's asset classes or a reasonable approximation of the current portfolio's asset classes had been available over the reported time period. A proxy fund (a fund with similar performance to another) or the stated performance benchmark for a fund may be used as a representative for a currently available private fund (one not publicly traded or without available pricing data) when determining the HORIZON™ Model Portfolio and calculating the expected historical performance. Actual performance may be higher or lower than the hypothetical performance using proxy and benchmark funds.
