The price of oil has significantly impacted investor confidence and trust in the stock market’s going forward ability to provide consistent, sufficient returns to adequately fund their retirement objectives. Alternative Investing options offer reduced exposure to stock market volatility, providing tangible assets with increased principal protection as well as customized investment strategies specific to individual investment needs and requirements.
Alternative Investing refers to a broad range of “non-correlated” (to the price-movement of stocks and bonds) investment assets. Equity in a private company and commercial real estate investments are examples of Alternative Investment assets.
Investors who have grown justifiably tired of stocks, bonds and mutual funds - considered “traditional investment assets” – the type of investments Wall Street broker dealers, money managers and retirement plan providers have historically sold - should consider alternative investing options.

The overwhelming mandate for change being expressed by voters during the Presidential Primaries has implications for Wall Street and its customer base of angry investors!
Hundreds of billions of subprime mortgage-related losses have caused significant equity and market cap erosion for institutions having mortgage-related exposure. These losses combined with the fabrications of many senior-level executives when supposedly “leveling” with investors and analysts about their companies’ mortgage-related exposure – has only served to further fuel investor hostility!
Now especially - thousands of Americans have stock, bond and mutual fund investment portfolios which have significantly underperformed conservative, base-case expectations. For many, retirement is no longer an option!
Wall Street broker dealers, money managers and retirement plan providers have historically sold only those investments offered by their firms - stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Wall Street (due to those billions of dollars of devastating mortgage related losses) will be forced to “get back to basics” – which translates to selling (now more that ever) investors even more stocks, bonds and mutual funds – known as “traditional investment” assets.
