Just because the stock market has taken a downturn does not mean you should lose everything you invested based upon the advice of your broker. Unfortunately, several major investment brokerage firms have come under fire for allegedly issuing intentionally inaccurate stock reports.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) prohibits investment banks, brokerage firms, brokers and dealers from making misleading statements, omitting facts, or engaging in "fraudulent or manipulative acts and practices, in connection with the purchase or sale of securities". Securities firms are not permitted to mislead the public; if they do so, they are defrauding investors.
