Further Considerations Before Any Decisions regarding QTEC

  • Risks: Like most market-related investments QTEC comes

       with, but isn't limited to, these risks: Market volatility-driven portfolio, Market downturns and potential investor financial  loss, Sector limitations – (QTEC exclusively 
       Technology/ Tech giant dependent), Expense Fees erosion
    
  • Evaluation: AI based rating systems depend heavily

              on dataset selection. An evaluation would require a specific AI   model which is outside purview. A fundamental rating based on the provided         
              factors would depend too critically on individual priorities regarding risk tolerance, investment goals which makes it unfeasible here at present.
