Re: BFI August [censored] Thread
Yegads the volatility in the markets is nuts. I want to sell a bunch of my index funds and get into some stocks that I actually like, but I'm really disturbed about selling out of a fund that's going up at down 2% every few hours!!!

[ QUOTE ] can someone explain to me why short term traders pay more taxes than buy and hold traders? [/ QUOTE ] For U.S. investors, realized gains on assests held for at least one year are taxed as long-term capital gains tax. This is currently capped at 15%. Gains on assets held for less than one year are taxed as ordinary income tax which may or may not be higher than 15% depending on your specific tax situation. [/ QUOTE ] Oh come on, I gave him a hint. |

Please clear your PMs. If your PMs are too important to clear, can you PM me on whether your fund is set up as an LLC or S/C corp? I gonna guess S corp [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |
