Say a foreigner created an offshore company in Delaware or Wyoming. Will he be able to invest in US assets and stocks via the company without any restrictions?

Also I'm aware of that foreign investors must pay 30% taxes on any income on their investments. But since the company is in a zero tax state, will the income be exempt from any taxes?

Thank you for any response in advance.
 
You always have federal taxes even if you are in a state with 0% tax. A corporation would be fully taxable in the US, however a one member LLC can be disregarded for taxes. From IRS point of view you will then be considered a foreign sole proprietor. The broker will withhold 30% of dividends (unless you live in a country with a tax US treaty that reduced this amount). Capital gains are not taxed in the US for foreigners.
