Important Information

Star Stocks Investment Performance Disclosure

Members of Stock Doctor will have access to stock selection and portfolio management strategies centred around Stock Doctor Star Stocks, along with performance data and graphs for our Star Growth Stocks, Borderline Star Growth Stocks and Star Income Stocks. Members -must read and understand how Star Stock performance is calculated.

Stocks that fail to pass this selection process and strategies have no further research conducted on them.

Star Stock information is for general information purposes only and is not intended as investment advice, or as recommendations to buy, sell or hold a stock.

Bear in mind that investments can go up or down in value and Star Stock past performance is not an indicator of future performance.

Stock selection and portfolio management strategies

Lincoln Indicators currently promotes four (4) stock selection and portfolio management strategies centred around Stock Doctor Star Stocks.

  • Rebalanced equal weight approach portfolio of Stock Doctor Star Stocks
  • No rebalance approach of a notional portfolio of Stock Doctor Star Stocks
  • No rebalance with SD30TSR indicator overlay; and
  • No rebalance with SDMAX indicator overlay.

Even though the back-tested results are very positive, there are pros and cons associated with each of these strategies. Please refer to the Stock Doctor help centre, resource centre and our public website or tutorials on how to best use the strategies and the type of investor the strategies best suit.

SD30TSR and SDMAX indicators are for general information purposes only, they are not intended as investment advice, or as recommendations to buy, sell or hold a stock and are not to be relied upon as such.

The Portfolio Constructor

The Portfolio Constructor generates a hypothetical portfolio based on a specific investor profile selected by the user (e.g. Aggressive – Growth Focus, Balanced – General Focus, etc.) This profile is determined by the user and may, or may not be appropriate for the user (for example, a user may wish to run the Constructor numerous times using different investor profiles).

This tool is for research purposes only and any output is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any stock, and does not suggest appropriate weightings. Rather, the companies highlighted align with Lincoln’s investment approach and are displayed relative to the risk, return and income preference identified as objectives of the profile selected.

The Portfolio Optimiser

The Portfolio Optimiser produces a list of suggested stocks (“Optimised suggestions”) that may be considered as part of a portfolio. The inclusion of a stock is not a recommendation to buy the stock. Rather, the inclusion of a stock in the list of “Optimised suggestions” means that the stock aligns with Lincoln’s investment approach and relative to the risk, return and income preference identified as objectives of the profile selected are stocks to consider for further research. This does not necessarily mean that the portfolio or the stock is appropriate for the user.

Profile Alignment Status

The Status (shown as green, orange or red indicators) as used in the Portfolio Manager, Constructor and Optimiser is not a recommendation to buy, hold or sell any particular stock. Rather, the Status shows how a particular stock aligns with Lincoln’s investment approach and the relative risk, return and income preferences identified as objectives of the profile selected by the user.

Stock Doctor Investors’ Network

Stock Doctor members (other than trial members) can join the Stock Doctor Investors’ Network (SDIN), which connects you to like-minded investors through a combination of local face-to-face meetings and online forums. Further information can be found here. If you choose to become a member of SDIN, you are bound by the SDIN Member Agreement, which govern attendance at the local meetings and use of the SDIN Online Hub (in addition to these Terms).

Payment

Membership fees (including renewal fees and additional membership fees) are payable as a single payment unless you are eligible to pay by instalment (see below). Our current fees and more information about fees and discounts are in the Financial Services Guide and, for corporate members, in the Corporate Agreement.
For all fees, we can determine from time to time the amount of each fee and how payment can be made e.g. credit card, direct debit etc.

Membership fee – For membership, you must pay us the current fee for the agreed membership period within 7 days of receipt of our invoice, unless we have agreed on instalment payments (see below).

Renewal – If you want to renew your membership at the end of the initial period or any renewal period, you must pay us the renewal fee that applies at that time. This must be paid within 7 days of receipt of our invoice and before your membership ends, unless we have agreed on instalment payments (see below). Any outstanding amounts must be paid in full before a new membership period commences. Trial membership cannot be renewed.

Free period – You may receive a Stock Doctor membership for a free period, for example, as part of a trial membership (see above). You are bound by these Terms during any free membership period.

Rewards – We also offer a rewards program for members who refer others to Stock Doctor. For information about the rewards program, see the Financial Services Guide.

Payment by instalments

You can pay your fees by monthly instalments if you are a private investor member with a membership or renewal period of one year only and if we agree. For instalment payments:

  • We will periodically debit your monthly fee from your nominated account.
  • The first drawing from your account will be on processing of your Stock Doctor registration form.
  • Subsequent amounts will be debited from your account on or about the same date each month until the fee is paid in full.
  • If any drawing falls due on a non-business day (in Melbourne), it will be debited from your account on the next business day.
  • We will give you at least 14 days’ notice by email or post if there are any changes to these arrangements.
  • To discuss any changes, you can contact our Membership Services Team on 1300 676 333 or by emailing enquiries@lincolnindicators.com.au.

Your obligations

It is your responsibility to ensure that:

  • your nominated account can accept direct debits (your financial institution can confirm this)
  • there are sufficient cleared funds in the nominated account on the drawing dates
  • you advise us if the nominated account is transferred or closed
  • you advise us if your credit card is discontinued or has expired (if applicable).

If your drawing is returned or dishonoured by your financial institution, we will re-draw after 3 days. If this has the same result, we will contact you (by phone, email, or letter) to discuss payment options. Any transaction fees payable by us in respect of a payment that is returned or dishonoured will be deducted from your nominated account or invoiced to you. Failure to pay membership and transaction fees will result in termination of your Stock Doctor membership and/or us deciding to cancel the instalment arrangement, with payment for the full membership period immediately falling due.

Your rights

To make changes to your nominated account, contact our Membership Services Team by calling 1300 676 333 or by emailing enquiries@lincolnindicators.com.au.

All changes to the drawing arrangements should be made at least 5 business days before the next scheduled drawing date.

  • If you believe that a drawing has been initiated incorrectly, please immediately contact our Membership Services Team on 1300 676 333 or email enquiries@lincolnindicators.com.au.
  • We will refund a drawn amount if we cannot substantiate the reason for the drawing.
  • We can decline your instalment application at any time.
