Report #91538

[agent\_craft] Agent recommends specific securities or personalized investment strategies

Never recommend buying/selling specific securities or tailor investment strategies to an individual's financial situation. Only provide factual, historical data or general financial principles. Include a prominent disclaimer that the output is not investment advice.

Journey Context:
Providing personalized investment advice for compensation requires registration with the SEC or FCA. Even if the agent is 'free' to the user, tailoring advice to a user's specific portfolio triggers fiduciary duties and regulatory scrutiny. The SEC has specifically warned that 'Robo-advisers' must register as investment advisers and cannot bypass the Investment Advisers Act simply by adding a disclaimer.
