38 Disclaimer
39 The prices of derivative instruments, including futures and options prices, are highly volatile. Price movements of forward contracts, futures contracts and other derivative contracts are influenced by, among other things, interest rates, changing supply and demand relationships, trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies of governments, and national and international political and economic events and policies. In addition, governments from time to time intervene, directly and by regulation, in certain markets, particularly markets in crytocurrencies. Such intervention often is intended directly to influence prices and may, together with other factors, cause all of such markets to move rapidly in the same direction because of, among other things, cryptocurrency price fluctuations. Any advice contained in this presentation is of a general nature only and does not constitute personal financial product advice, nor any solicitation to buy any financial product. In preparing the advice no account was taken of the objectives, financial situation or needs of any particular person. Therefore, before making any investment decision, readers should consider the appropriateness of the advice with regard to their particular objectives, financial situation and needs.
