Willier is the research analyst responsible for following Company X. All the information he has accumulated and documented suggest that the outlook for the firm's new products is poor, so the stock should be rated a weak hold. During lunch, however, Willier overhears a financial analyst from another firm offer opinions that conflict with Willier's forecasts and expectations. Upon returning to his office, Willier releases a strong buy recommendation to the public. Willier:

  1. violated the Standards by failing to distinguish between facts and opinions in his recommendation.
  2. was in full compliance with the Standards.
  3. violated the Standards because he did not have a reasonable and adequate basis for his recommendation.
  4. violated the Standards because he did not seek approval of the change from his firm's compliance department.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The question deals with Standard IV (A.1), Reasonable Basis and Representations. Willier's actions in changing the recommendation based on the opinion of another financial analyst is not an adequate basis for the recommendation. This question does not illustrate a violation of the need to distinguish between facts and opinions. Seeking approval from the firm for a change in a recommendation is a matter of policy set by the firm, not by the Standards.

Grey recommends the purchase of a mutual fund that invests solely in long-term U.S. Treasury bonds. He

makes the following statements to his clients:

  1. "The payment of the bond is guaranteed by the U.S. government; therefore, the default risk of the bonds is virtually zero."
    II. "If you invest in the mutual fund, you will earn a 15 percent rate of return each year for the next several years." Did Grey's statements violated AIMR's Code and Standards?
  2. Neither statement violated the Code and Standards.
  3. Statement I and II violated the code and Standards.
  4. Only statement I violated the Code and Standards.
  5. Only statement II violated the Code and Standards.

q252: dns poisoning is the correct answer, not locator redirection. beaconing is detected from a host. this indicates that the system has been infected with malware, which could be the source of local dns poisoning. location redirection works by either embedding the redirection in the original websites code or having a user click on a url that has an embedded redirect. since users at a different office are not getting redirected, it isnt an embedded redirection on the original website and since the user is manually typing in the url and not clicking a link, it isnt a modified link.
