Welcome to Twenty-First
Securities’ Interactive Guide to Hedging Low-Basis Stock.
When a stock achieves its
investment expectations, investors sometimes believe that their
only options are to sell it and pay a capital gains tax or
continue to hold it and watch it rise or fall. In fact, there are
other choices available to take a few chips off the table without
triggering tax or giving up ownership. The decision tree
summarizes the various forms of low-basis stock holdings and the hedges
that are appropriate in each situation. The articles discuss these
issues in greater detail.
