Simulation Purpose:
This market cycle simulator is designed for educational purposes only. The simulations, historical data representations, and strategy outcomes are simplified models that may not accurately reflect real market conditions. Past performance simulated in this tool does not guarantee future results in actual investing.

No Investment Advice:
This simulator does not constitute investment advice or recommendations. All investment decisions should be made based on thorough research, professional consultation, and individual financial circumstances. The strategies and scenarios presented are for educational illustration only.

Market Complexity:
Real markets are significantly more complex than any simulation can capture. Factors such as market liquidity, transaction costs, taxes, emotional decision-making, and unforeseen events can substantially impact actual investment outcomes compared to simulated results.

Educational Tool:
This simulator is intended to help users understand basic concepts of market cycles, sector rotation, and investment psychology. It should not be used as the sole basis for any investment decisions or portfolio management strategies.

Risk Warning:
Investing in securities involves substantial risk of loss. Market timing strategies, as demonstrated in this simulator, are particularly challenging to execute successfully in real markets and may lead to significant losses.
