The 4 Best Internet Stocks to Buy Now

In This Issue: The 4 Best Internet Stocks to Buy Now Infrastructure: The Future of Investing for Income Two Important New IRA Rules We're at the tipping point right NOW! A new technology wave is rolling through cyberspace. It will change every facet of our lives. Many companies won't survive. But the wave will usher in a new round of winners. We're at the tipping point right now! Smart companies have already spent $399 billion on this technology. But in the next 4 years, spending will DOUBLE! These 4 'next wave' profit winners are where the smart investors will be for massive gains. The rest will miss it. Details here. The 4 Best Internet Stocks to Buy Now There's a new wave rolling through cyberspace. As it surges forward, it will knock down weak companies. Idle investors will drown. But smart investors can ride the surf to new heights. In a moment, we'll show you how to avoid being pulled under as this massive wave washes ashore---and wind up sitting pretty with four simple trades that could turn $1,000 into $3,209, $13,478 ... even $103,056. But first, we want to show you some of the warning signs we've already seen---and introduce you to a stock-picking pro who knows exactly how to tame this wave and make it work for you. An Uncanny Record of Being Right Take BlackBerry, for example. The company enjoyed a cult following for decades, even as every phone manufacturer around passed it by. Its supporters always said their "next big thing" was right around the corner. But Leo Boeckl, an investment expert we've nicknamed the "Tech Whisperer" for reasons we'll reveal shortly, knew better. His advice was a warning: "It's a very risky investment over the long haul." Many folks thought he was nuts. But just weeks later, this headline appeared in the Wall Street Journal: "Blackberry puts itself up for sale." That's just the start of what Leo's been right about, though. Some critics likely chuckled in February when he wrote: "We don't recommend buying Amazon.com (in fact, it is a short sell recommendation in our Equity Trades Portfolio). One has to wonder how much longer Amazon can continue to appreciate while generating very little profit and paying no dividend." Or back in December (and many months before), when Leo called Apple "the one tech stock to own in 2014." But no one's laughing now, after Apple took off and Amazon cratered, just like the Tech Whisperer said they would. And best of all, readers of Leo's Smart Tech Investor advisory made money both ways. Trouncing the NASDAQ by 58% The truth is, Leo has an ability to pick winners that's unlike anything we've ever seen. For 16 years, he worked as a competitive analyst at IBM. His job there was to look five years into the future and tell them which products were going to take off. You simply don't get a job picking winners for one of the most respected tech companies on the planet unless you're the best at what you do. His method continues to pay off: his portfolio is up 58% over the NASDAQ through the first six months of 2014. And he's on track for an even better third quarter. Here's the bottom line: Leo knows the tech business. And he knows how to profit from it. The Secret to Capturing the Market's Biggest Gains There's no doubt that tech stocks are responsible for some of the biggest gains the market has ever delivered. The key is to get in early---just as the fuse is lit. If you'd put $1,000 into Intel in 1998, for example, you could have sold it for a comfortable profit of $3,209 just two years later. A $1,000 stake in Cisco would have netted you a solid $13,478 just three years later. And if you had put $1,000 into Apple at the beginning of 2005, you'd be sitting on $103,056 just eight years later. That's a rare 100-bagger. These ships have already sailed, of course. But it's not too late to get in on Leo's next string of winners as the Internet's latest growth wave heaves into view. This new wave isn't about building the Internet at all. In fact, it doesn't have anything to do with the infrastructure. Instead, it's about how the Internet will change every facet of our lives. And it starts with... A $6.2-Trillion Boom Leo's surf plan starts on a very high crest---in the clouds, in fact. Cloud computing isn't pie in the sky. Barron's estimates that it will grow by 44% a year, while onsite computing will only grow 8.9%. It's no wonder when you see numbers like the ones from a report by McKinsey & Company, which estimates the impact of cloud technology could be up to $6.2 trillion by 2025. I'm sure you've seen some of the recent headlines: "5 Reasons Cloud Computing Is Booming" ---Huffington Post "Cloud Computing Enters Its Second Stage, Hypergrowth Ensues" ---ZDNet "Prepare for the Cloud Data Explosion" ---InfoWorld But it's even bigger than most people think. Consider this: In the past four years, companies have invested $339 billion in the cloud. But in the next four, they plan to spend $788 billion---or more than twice as much as they already have! And best of all for you, Leo's found the perfect way to profit from it. It's a company we call Next Wave Profit Opportunity #1. This forward-thinking outfit is taking the cloud to the insurance business. Let's face it, there aren't many industries more boring than insurance. All the data and actuarial analysis insurance companies handle could quickly put you to sleep... ...but that only makes a company that gives them an unprecedented amount of computing power and storage even more exciting. Particularly one that's valued more like a stodgy insurance company---at just 10 times forward earnings---instead of the exploding cloud company it really is. That means just one thing: the days of its shares trading around $15 are numbered. How to Catch the Next Wave Now Remember, there's more to this revolution than the cloud. Just like a chair, there are three more legs holding up the Next Wave of the Internet, and they are big data, mobile and social. Each is transforming the Internet. In fact, this Next Wave is so loaded with potential that we've created a brand new portfolio around it. Here's the best part: We've put the four companies that form the backbone of that portfolio into a new special report called "Next Wave Profits: How to Bank Massive Gains from the NEW Internet Revolution."And we're ready to send you your copy free. The share prices on some of these companies are already creeping higher---and Leo says others (such as Next Wave Profit Opportunity #3, which you'll read about in your free report) could triple by the end of this year. There's no doubt that word is starting to get out, so if you're going to add these 4 screaming buys to your portfolio, you'd better do it now. Don't wait another minute.

Editor's Note: Leo Boeckl's ability to pick winners is proven---you only have to look at his incredible calls on Apple and Amazon, plus the fact that he's beating the NASDAQ by an incredible 58% so far this year. The bottom line is this: The companies that seized the first wave of the Internet---like eBay---showed early investors gains of 3,010%. This next wave will be even bigger. And the four stocks Leo reveals in this extraordinary report should be at the top of your list. The time to act is now. Go here to discover these 4 surprising picks now.

Infrastructure: The Future of Investing for Income 9/24/2014 By Richard Stavros Over the last year a Who's Who of top economists has predicted that developed economies are in for a long period of slow growth. But infrastructure spending will grow to the tune of trillions of dollars because it has to. That's why the huge demand for infrastructure investment around the world is beginning to be viewed as a new category for income investors. This demand will benefit utilities, telecoms and other income-producing investments, such as those found in the Global Income Edge portfolio. Whether it's power plants, bridges, roads or water systems, the developed world's aging infrastructure needs fixed. Meanwhile, emerging markets will need faster infrastructure development to match economic growth and urbanization. The Next Big Thing BlackRock CEO Larry Fink recently wrote an Op-ed on why infrastructure could be the next big opportunity. The chief of the world's largest money management firm said that the private sector will increasingly help finance infrastructure projects because governments around the world don't have the cash and because investors are looking for new sources of return. Governments are expected to allow the sale of securities to finance public-private infrastructure partnerships. And these governments may provide tax breaks and other perks to spur investment. According to a report by Bain & Company released in April, crumbling infrastructure in developed countries and a surge of infrastructure building in developing economies will mean 4% annual growth on infrastructure investment "well into the second half of this decade, pushing total investment to $4 trillion." So far at least, Wall Street is largely ignoring the investment potential of this massive spending. About 75% of institutional investors allot less than 5% of assets they manage to infrastructure. But Bain expects that percentage to increase and the number of infrastructure funds has nearly tripled in the past five years. Power to the People Which infrastructure investments will benefit from the build out? I've found that following power demand, population growth, and gross domestic product is the pay way to find out. The trend in power demand is clear. While power demand grows around 1% annually in developed economies, faster-growing countries show power-demand growth above 10%. Global energy use is projected to grow by 56% between 2010 and 2040. The U.S. Department of Energy's Energy Information Administration attributes half of the increase to China and India. Power generation is going to be the fastest-growing sector, with worldwide electricity use projected to increase by 90% from 2010 to 2040 and developing countries accounting for most of that increase.

Isn't the NASDAQ the benchmark for technology stocks? Yet there's a tech analyst so adept at picking tech winners, his entire portfolio beat the NASDAQ by 58% in the first half of 2014. The third quarter is looking phenomenal. Right now, he's talking about the NEXT WAVE in technology. Companies will spend almost $1 billion in the next 4 years acquiring it… or quite possibly go under. He's picked 4 stocks that will ride this wave to potentially 100-bagger status. Meet the guy and discover his winning picks here. Two Important New IRA Rules By Bob Carlson Summer began with announcements of a couple of surprising changes about IRAs. These important rules should figure in your IRA planning. First, the Supreme Court weighed in. The background is that in 2005 the federal bankruptcy law was revised. One of the revisions eliminated a patchwork of state rules and made clear that IRAs and similar retirement accounts are protected assets in a bankruptcy. Creditors cannot be awarded these assets in a bankruptcy. But the Supreme Court said the law is not as comprehensive as many thought. In the case, a married couple declared bankruptcy after their pizza shop failed. Their main asset was $300,000 in an IRA the wife inherited from her mother. They owed $700,000 to various creditors. The bankruptcy trustee sought to distribute the IRA to the creditors. The Supreme Court ruled that an inherited IRA is not protected in the bankruptcy code. An inherited IRA differs from a personal IRA in ways that mean it isn't a retirement asset. When an IRA is inherited, distributions must begin and can't be delayed until retirement. The beneficiary isn't allowed to make additional contributions and can take distributions at any time, including a distribution of the entire account. Because of the differences, an inherited IRA is not protected as a retirement account. You might want to consider this ruling when naming beneficiaries of your IRAs. A child or grandchild who has financial problems or is in an occupation at high-risk from creditors (such as a surgeon) might not be an appropriate beneficiary of an IRA. You could leave that loved one off the beneficiary list for your IRA and let him inherit other assets. Or you could try naming a trust as beneficiary of the IRA instead. But the rules for naming trust as IRA beneficiaries are very restrictive. You want to receive good legal advice before trying it. Some commentators have argued that the reasoning in the Supreme Court's decision also could apply to rollover IRAs and some other IRAs. That is speculation, since the court ruled only on inherited IRAs, but the reasoning could be expanded to other types of IRAs. Keep in mind that states can offer IRAs greater bankruptcy protection than the federal law, and some do. If the creditor protection of an IRA concerns you, check your state's bankruptcy law or of the states in which your beneficiaries live. Longevity Annuities in IRAs In other IRA news, the Treasury Department issued final rules on longevity annuities in IRAs, 401(k)s, and similar accounts. In a longevity annuity, or deferred income annuity, you deposit a lump sum with an insurer, usually when you are between ages 50 and 65. The insurer holds and invests the money in its own account for at least five years. You select the holding period, and it can be as late as when you turn 80 or 85, depending on the annuity. When the holding period ends, the insurer begins paying you a fixed income for the rest of your life. The annual payment is fixed when you make the initial deposit in the annuity. A downside of a longevity annuity is that there is nothing for your heirs to inherit. Also, if you don't live to the starting age, the insurer keeps the money. If you live only a few years after the starting age, the insurer comes out ahead. (Some longevity annuities offer riders that will provide something for a beneficiary in case of a premature death, but the cost is a lower annual payment for you.) The advantage is that you receive the promised annual amount no matter how long you live after the starting date. You have a steady stream of income you can't outlive. The problem until the new rules was how the annuities figured into required minimum distributions you must take after age 70½. It wasn't clear how to compute an RMD when part of an IRA was invested in an annuity that wouldn't begin payments until the future. Many people wouldn't buy the annuities through IRAs because of the uncertainty, and many IRA sponsors wouldn't allow them. The new rules state that the longevity annuity needn't be considered in RMD calculations if the annuity is no more than the lesser of 25% of the account's value or $125,000 at the time of purchase. The non-annuity portion of the account is used to compute RMDs before the annuity start date. In addition, an annuity counts as a longevity annuity under the rules even if it returns premiums to a beneficiary as a death benefit. These rules don't apply to variable annuities or to other types of annuities. The new rules make longevity annuities a more attractive purchase through an IRA because they eliminate uncertainty and allow favorable RMD calculations. The three largest longevity annuity sellers, comprising 90% of the market, are New York Life, Massachusetts Mutual Life, and Northwestern Mutual Life, according to Limra.
