Consult our Form ADV Part 2Afor additional information about Betashield strategy fees and expenses and ask your advisor how these fees apply to your account. All analyses and information contained herein are based on sources believed to be reliable, including information received from third-party sources, but no representation or warranty of any kind, expressed or implied, is made including but not limited to any representation or warranty concerning accuracy, completeness, correctness, timeliness or appropriateness. The information contained herein is as of the date referenced above, and Alphastar does not undertake any obligation to update such information in any form or format. All investments involve the risk of potential investment losses as well as potential for investment gains. Past performance is not a guarantee or predictor of future results of any particular investment, benchmark or indices nor a guarantee of achieving overall financial objectives. Investments offering the potential for higher rates of return also involve a higher degree of risk. The risk algorithm (“Algorithm”) used in the Betashield portfolios is NOT A GUARANTEE against loss or declines in the value of a portfolio. While the algorithm was designed with the goal of limiting account drawdowns in declining markets, Alphastar is not able to predict market conditions or ensure that the Algorithm will limit drawdown as designed. Portfolios are subject to general market risk and risks related to economic conditions. The portfolios’ underlying investments fluctuate in price and may be sold at a price lower than the purchase price resulting in a loss of principal. TheBetashield portfolios have no principal guarantees, no guarantee that the account will grow, no guarantee the account will not lose value, could lose more than the stop-loss ranges of each portfolio based on extreme market conditions such as a “flash crash” or “back-to-back significant losses”, or “other unplanned economic, world, or negative event”, and do not have guaranteed lifetime income. During the time the funds are out of the stock market they will not participate in any stock market gains and the Betashield performance may be lower than market performance in markets with positive performance. It is understood that the underlying Betashield portfolio could be considered aggressive by itself, but a portfolio strategy which employs the risk management overlay, the assumed risk is lessened. The Betashield portfolio is not designed to act like the S&P;500 Index, nor the Dow, nor the NASDAQ, it is designed to decrease the volatility historically exhibited in those indexes. The technical goal of each Betashield portfolio is to potentially reduce portfolio standard deviation (risk) and potentially increase return opportunities as compared to risk(Alpha). Risk reduction and increased performance is not guaranteed. The underlying investments are neither FDIC-insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government. There may be economic times where all investments are unfavorable and decline in value. Please evaluate your clients’ circumstances and risk tolerance to understand if these investments are right for them. Clients may lose money.
