Yeah, there should be multiple massive disclaimers on this site. I'd be worried about regulatory issues as well.

Edit: why disagree?

Why? Anyone who invests based on such obviously wrong numbers shouldn’t be protected from themselves.
The concern isn't that they would invest bed on obviously wrong numbers. The concern is that someone invests based on believable numbers that are incorrect. There's no information on accuracy measures or verification. Offering this model to others could be an SEC/FINRA violation.
Likely the people who downvoted have no experience with the legal part of stock related discussions/tools (implied expectations/suggestions, etc), there is a reason why you see "not a financial advice" and other legal texts presented in videos discussing stocks.

Also there is no real company / person mentioned as an owner at least on the website so the privacy policy is kind of a "trust me bro".
