The performance of Birinyi´s past recommendations or investments is not a guarantee of future results and there is no guarantee that the results achieved in the past will be achieved in the future.  As with all investment decisions (sales, purchases and short sales) you should perform your own independent research to determine if a given asset, stock, bond, ETF, option, future or commodity is suitable to your own unique risk tolerance.  FURTHER, ALL INVESTMENTS CAN LOSE MONEY.
