I’m out again

[Eugene]

Always remember about taxes … if it’s a retirement account, you’re okay … if it’s not, you’ll pay 35-40% in taxes on any gains you make. And, if you bought a house or intend to buy a house this year, capital gains due to the sale might just be enough to kick your AGI above the $8000 tax credit eligibility threshold. You should always do the math.

If you’re investing outside 401k/IRA, it may be more profitable to wait out a small correction long stocks till you lock in the LTCG status, than to bail at the first sign of danger.

On the subject of feelings, I fully understand your feelings, but my rational side tells me that the stock market has enough strength left for one more rally. Maybe I’ll exit in October.

I wonder how many short term traders are clueless about the tax implications. I like to think most of the Piggington faithful aren’t in that eventually stunned group.

I followed your lead, sdrealtor! At least for my two largest retirement accounts. Hope your investment sense is as sound as your knowledge of real estate markets.

The little short term trading I do, I do in my IRA.

I did quite well last year when the market was going 300 point one way then 300 points the other the next.
