Risk Disclosures

Plain statements about what this project is, and the risks of the ideas it studies.

Last updated:

Research-stage status

MAA is a research-stage project. It is not an investment fund, investment advisor, broker-dealer, or trading service. It does not trade live, manages no client assets, and publishes no performance results.

No investment offering

Nothing on this site is an offer or solicitation, and MAA does not accept investment capital. Nothing here is investment advice or a recommendation.

No guarantee of outcomes

No outcome is guaranteed. Financial markets involve risk of loss, including the loss of all capital invested. Past performance, real or simulated, is not a reliable indicator of future results.

Limits of historical simulation

Historical simulations are built with hindsight. They are subject to look-ahead bias, survivorship bias, data-snooping and overfitting, and to errors in assumed costs, slippage, and liquidity. They do not represent real trading and are not live results.

Models trained on historical text can also carry knowledge of events after a simulated date, which can invalidate a simulation in ways that are hard to detect.

Risks of AI models

Language models can produce incorrect, fabricated, or inconsistent output with apparent confidence. They are nondeterministic and can be manipulated by the content they read, such as news or filings containing adversarial instructions. This is why the design places a deterministic policy layer between model output and any action.

Data and operational risks

Market data can be late, incomplete, revised, or wrong. Software can contain defects, and cloud services can fail. Any of these can lead to incorrect research conclusions.

Regulatory considerations

Financial activities are regulated and rules differ by jurisdiction. Any step beyond research would require legal and regulatory assessment first.

Seek independent advice

Before making any financial decision, consult a qualified, licensed professional. Do not rely on this site for that purpose.
