It’s that time of year again when we all get to fill out the nearly endless forms required by our friendly United States Internal Revenue Service. Actually, it may be a little early to start thinking about this since it’s not the night before everything is due. Why not start your income taxes at the very last minute? It always adds that little extra dramatic tension when your spouse is hovering while complaining how you always leave the taxes until the last minute. With all the pressures of the second TV season, is there any other way?

I guess you wouldn’t need to worry about taxes at all if you lived someplace like Gambia, Brunei, or Papua, New Guinea. But then what would you do until four in the morning every year on April 15th?
While companies like Ford (F), Pfizer (PFE), Micron Technology (MU) and J.P. Morgan (JPM) have armies of neatly-dressed accountants to help them make sure they get all the tax deductions they deserve, it’s just you and possibly a guy name Mort, who works out of his damp basement with a parakeet flying around, doing your taxes.

8) Exclusive Special Report! Where Is The Safest Place To Invest In The Market Today? |

Be one of the first to read and reap from this options trade based report.
Summary: Over the past year, the market has gone from being one of the scariest markets ever to one of the most boring ever. After hitting multiyear lows then going on a historic ten-month rally, it looks like we could be headed for an extended period of market stagnation coupled with one of the weakest economic recoveries in American history. Where can investors turn for a safe investment with modest but reliable returns? We may have found an answer to that question in the utility industry. With a stable business model, steady dividend payments, and a promising future, this oft forgotten industry could be a new source of profits for savvy investors.
Stocks Covered: Xcel Energy (XEL), Dominion (D), Wisconsin Energy (WEC), FPL Group (FPL),Center Point (CNP), Duke Energy (DUK), and more…
Target Returns: Up to 12.4% or 43.8% Annualized*
Downside Protection: Up to 15.7%
Investor Level: Beginner to Advanced
Risk Level: Moderate Relative Risk
