Disclosure Policy
Last Updated: March 3rd, 2026
At Compounding Memo LLC, doing business as The Compounding Memo (“Compounding Memo,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), transparency matters. We believe subscribers deserve to understand how we operate, how we invest, and whether we may have financial interests in the securities discussed in our newsletters and publications.
This Disclosure Policy explains how we handle potential conflicts of interest, personal investing activity, and other relationships that may affect our content.
By accessing or using compoundingmemo.com (the “Website”) or subscribing to our newsletters and services (collectively, the “Services”), you acknowledge and agree to this Disclosure Policy.
1. Educational Purpose Only
Compounding Memo provides investment-related commentary, portfolio allocation models, research, and educational materials. However, we are not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, or financial planner.
Nothing we publish is intended to be, or should be interpreted as:
Personalized investment advice
A recommendation to buy or sell any security
An offer or solicitation to purchase or sell securities
Tax, legal, or accounting advice
All content is provided for informational and educational purposes only.
2. Ownership of Securities Discussed
Compounding Memo LLC, its owner(s), and its contributors may own securities (including stocks, ETFs, bonds, options, or other instruments) that are discussed, referenced, analyzed, or included in our model portfolios.
This means we may have a financial interest in securities we write about.
At any given time, we may be:
Long a security (benefiting if the price rises)
Short a security (benefiting if the price falls)
Holding derivatives such as options
Holding a security indirectly through an index fund or ETF
Subscribers should assume that we may hold positions in securities mentioned unless explicitly stated otherwise.
3. Model Portfolios vs. Personal Portfolios
Compounding Memo may publish model portfolios and portfolio allocation weightings.
These portfolios are intended as models for educational purposes, not personalized investment recommendations. Actual accounts managed by Compounding Memo LLC’s owner(s) may differ in:
Position size
Entry price
Timing
Tax considerations
Account type
Risk tolerance
Liquidity needs
4. Trade Notification Policy
As part of our commitment to fairness and transparency, Compounding Memo follows a trade notification practice:
If we plan to buy or sell a security that is included in a published portfolio model or discussed in a newsletter, we will generally send a subscriber notification prior to executing that trade in personal accounts. We aim to provide notice at least 30 minutes in advance when reasonably practicable.
However, subscribers acknowledge and agree that:
We are not obligated to provide advance notice in every situation
Rapidly changing market conditions, breaking news, or extraordinary volatility may require trades to be executed without advance notice
Execution timing may vary
Some trades may be made in accounts that do not match the model portfolio
We do not guarantee that subscribers will be able to execute trades at the same price
Trade notifications may be delivered by email or through another method we choose.
5. No Duty to Update or Maintain Coverage
We may discuss a stock, ETF, or strategy at one point in time and later stop mentioning it. We are not obligated to provide ongoing updates or continued coverage of any security.
We may also change our views at any time without notice.
6. Performance Figures and Reporting Limitations
We may reference historical performance, portfolio returns, total return calculations, and other financial metrics.
These figures may be derived using third-party tools and data sources, including but not limited to:
Google Sheets
Google Finance
Brokerage or exchange data feeds
Public company filings
Third-party financial websites
Although we strive for accuracy, data sources may contain errors, delays, omissions, or incorrect pricing. Therefore, Compounding Memo does not guarantee that any performance results, pricing data, portfolio calculations, or total return figures are accurate or complete.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
7. No Front-Running Subscribers
We do not intend to “front-run” subscribers (meaning buying or selling a security ahead of a recommendation or update in order to benefit from subscriber activity).
However, subscribers acknowledge that:
Compounding Memo may already hold a position in a security before it is discussed
Compounding Memo may initiate or exit positions after publishing content
Market prices may change rapidly after publications are released
8. Affiliate Relationships and Compensation
Compounding Memo may, now or in the future, receive compensation through advertising, affiliate links, sponsorships, or referral relationships.
For example, we may earn compensation if you click a link or sign up for a product or service we mention.
If affiliate compensation is involved, we will attempt to disclose this clearly near the relevant link or content.
However, we are not obligated to list every vendor relationship or service provider we use.
9. Sponsored Content
If we ever publish sponsored content, paid promotions, or advertisements, we will make reasonable efforts to label such material clearly as “Sponsored” or “Advertisement.”
10. Subscriber Responsibility
You are solely responsible for your investment decisions.
You should not make any investment decision based solely on information from Compounding Memo. You should conduct your own research and consider consulting a licensed financial professional.
11. Changes to This Disclosure Policy
We may update this Disclosure Policy at any time. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of the page.
Your continued use of the Website or Services after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated Disclosure Policy.
