What is a good energy investment fund to get involved with?

Alternative energy ETF investments are one of the soundest ways of investing your money. An EFT is an exchange traded fund, which means it is kind of like a mutual fund. It can usually turn out to be something dependable to invest in.

Really? Alternative energy? What about Gold?

The old traditional standby of investing in gold looks to be solid, but the potential is only for capital preservation, with very little possible in the way of significant capital gains. If you are looking for something equally solid, but with greater investment potential, the alternative energy industry looks to be a very good bet.

Who is investing in these funds?

Alternative energy investments are starting to attract some of the biggest players in the business world. Don't always follow what the big boys are doing. They may just be:

• Gambling with money they can afford to lose

• Acting on the misplaced advice of a friend

• Expanding with a view to buying a company in that industry

• When several of the shrewdest investors in the world all move into an investment, the likelihood is that somebody knows what they are doing

We are seeing this now with energy.

Is this really the time to do it?

The fundamentals of alternative energy could scarcely be stronger. The alternative energy industry is now in a position where even the major world governments see it as being essential to the very survival  of our economic infrastructure and the way we live. With fossil fuel resources diminishing and the awareness of pollution damage increasing, there is no doubt that alternative energy will survive. The government has to ensure its survival, no matter what. Beyond this, there is also a great public awareness of the need to support alternative energy.

Is this a long term or short term strategy?

Like many investments, it's hard to say. While the fundamentals are very strong, the short term indicators are also extremely promising. The combination of an uncertain world economy and the troubles of the world situation is leading to rises in the oil price, with the result that traditional fuels and the machines which need them are becoming increasingly expensive. This will invariably lead to ever more people taking a look at how they can reduce their dependency on the traditional system.

So, what is the bottom line about this type of investment?

Alternative energy ETF investments give you a welcome chance to add diversification to your portfolio, while still ensuring that you remain within the industry which gives you the potential you are looking for. The best strategy you can follow is to place most of your money into a solid fund, while still retaining a small percentage for informed speculation. There are going to be some huge winners in this industry in the years to come, and you may well find yourself backing one of them. Keep these speculative investments separate from your alternative energy ETF.
