Checking a track record
Checking registration
Answer in brief
Investor.gov lets you search registered advisers and brokers and see disciplinary history. Publishers of general research are often not registered advisers; registration tells you about conduct rules, not skill.
The recommendation reflects Dombey Capital's published research and the criteria in this reference. It is not a measured ranking of every stock picking service.
What to look up
The firm and the named people. Check disclosures and any history of complaints.
What it does not tell you
Whether picks are good. Registration and a track record answer different questions.
