Date: January 31st, 2010 4:01 PM Author: racy windowlicker I got in BIDU at $115 in the spring... held that until July (who knew it would reach $400 ugh).
Bought in FMCN (which I kept telling xoxo to get into) but sold that in Sept.
I've done some swing trading on a few banking stocks, but mostly I was long term this year... and I was buying up bargins in the market with the best P/E ratios and mostly chinese stocks.
GSI is a sleeping giant right now (just FYI)
I really just invested in a few keepers that were way oversold as American investors bought back into OUR market instead of the best markets. |

|
Date: February 3rd, 2010 12:25 AM Author: Self-centered lodge There is actually. If the market goes up and you don't have any losses anymore than you'll never be able to deduct the 3k.
What I do is try to sell at least 3k in losses each year. When I sell I buy another index fund (but not one that is similar as the one I sold so that I don't violate the IRS wash rule).
I then hold on to the newly purchased index fund. As a result I get the 28% plus state tax deduction on the 3k loss plus I get whatever gain I make in the new index fund.
Hope this makes sense, but basically you can get the IRS to subsidize your finances by over 1k a year. |
