"This product changed our life! My wife and I wanted to diversify our portfolios, and were attracted by technologies stocks. However, we weren’t entirely confident about their potential over a short period of time. We heard about this product and we’re hooked! We were able to diversify our portfolio and even though the stocks only gained an average of 5%, we received a 15% return on our principal!”
Johnny and Mandy McKennen—May 2015
This truly innovative and unique product is perfect for investors seeking or requiring exposure in the technology sector, either for diversification or speculation, who hold mildly bullish expectations regarding the performance of this sector. Modest gains are transformed into respectable returns following an accelerated upside structure in the form of a 3-to-1 amplification, all the while being able to maintain a 1-to-1 downside, similar to a direct investment in stocks.
The highly volatile technology stocks selected enjoy relatively very low correlations between one another, meaning a poor performance by one of the stocks will likely be offset by the performance of the other stocks, and on average an investor will generate positive returns.
An average everyday novice investor will not only be able to understand our simple payoff structure, but will be motivated also by their awareness of the underlying stocks, being some of the most pop-ular companies today and will have the opportunity to enter a position that requires a small investment!

Payoff Structure
This product features a simple to understand and very lucrative payoff structure. An initial start-ing value is calculated to be $255, following a weighting of the underly-ing stocks. A terminal value is calculated using these same weights at the end of the 18 months using the closing prices on this day. Redemption values will be calculated based up-on these weighted bas-kets. Positive returns will be multiplied by a factor of 3, with a capped re-turn at 45%. Negative returns will be dealt with on a 1-to-1 basis, de-creasing the principal amount returned to the investor, hence the ab-sence of principal protection.
