Stock Market Volatility Has Accredited Investors Seeking Alternative Investment Strategies
Squamish, BC (PRWEB) August 17, 2011
InvestmentOptions.Net predicts the number of investors who are struggling to protect and create wealth because of the extreme volatility in the stock market and real estate market are will explore alternative investments in oil and gas in growing numbers. This prediction is based on recent increases in inquiries to InvestmentOptions.Net for information about alternative investment opportunities available. The reasons investors are considering alternative investment strategies in oil and gas are considerable; there are a variety of advantages for the qualified investor interested in protecting and creating wealth.
According to CNNMoney,(April 10-2010 Deflation? Inflation? Protect against both), not only do oil and gas and other commodities investments offer the ability for investors to hedge against inflation, but the government’s desire to reduce the country’s reliance on foreign oil and gas supplies has provided sophisticated, highly qualified investors with a number of attractive incentives to promote domestic oil and gas investment. Because of recent volatility in both stocks and real estate investing, oil and gas investment is an alternative many accredited investors are investigating with the help of InvestmentOptions.Net.
Those who invest in oil and gas domestically not only contribute directly to the stabilization of the U.S. economy by stimulating domestic oil and gas production but also may be able to take advantage of significant income deductions and other tax benefits that make the investment alternatives even more attractive.
The cost and risk involved with well development can be significant, but many of the costs, both tangible and intangible, can be deducted or depreciated over time. Because oil and gas investments can be considered active income, these deductions can be used to offset income from a number of sources, including salaries and other capital gains. In addition, up to 15% of the earnings from a domestic well can be tax-free depending on the structure of the investment (Tax Code Section 613A).
InvestmentOptions.Net expects the number of accredited investors considering the alternative investment strategies available with oil and gas to continue to increase over the next several quarters. Alfred Marshall said, “Capital is that part of wealth which is devoted to obtaining further wealth.” No other investment alternative provides such potential for transforming capital into additional wealth than oil and gas investing.
