Cash gang boring bro. Been there since mid feb, still proudly CG. Like 90%. When buying back going into boring ETFs until we get those fun bull markets again. Probably buy some TQQQ and chill on it.

The original concept of the LCS was great. We could build a lot of them to fight through the Strait to allow a CVN and DDGs break through. We’d lose a lot of them in the process but that’s war. Congress and the Navy agreed to that plan but then changed their mind and said it had to be survivable, had to replace the FFG for ASW, had to replace the MCM for counter-mining, and had to have a surface and air component to match a DDG and aging CG. Well, that sucked.

JOPAPatch

Yes they can. They won’t kill every last Marine like how drones haven’t killed every last defender in battles in Ukraine. It’ll be a living hell, but Iran is unlikely to kill every last Marine that makes it to the island. Once again, seizing and controlling the island is easier when compared to the transit from the Gulf of Oman to the Persian/Arabian Gulf. The Strait of Hormuz and the transit through the Gulf is likely going to be the true test. I do not believe a LHA, CG, and DDG alone can do it. I do not believe adding the DDGs from the Ford and Lincoln will help either since their VLS cells are likely half depleted.

JOPAPatch

2500 Marines can take the island. There isn’t a large Iranian force there. The bigger issue is getting to Kharg Island. It’s in the northern Gulf. The three ships in the 31st MEU are the amphibious assault ship (LHA) (where the battalion of combat Marines and battalion of combat logistics Marines, their air component of F-35B and MV-22 Ospreys, and landing equipment are located), a cruiser (CG) (anti-air platform with 112 vertical launch system cells (VLS)), and a Flight IIA destroyer (DDG) (96 VLS). Fighting through the Strait of Hormuz is considered one of the worst missions the Navy can do. It’s been war gamed extensively and was determined we would lose too many DDGs in the fight. The littoral combat ship (LCS) was initially designed to do this mission because it would be cheap enough to lose. Ultimately the program had high cost overruns because it was unacceptable to lose the ship and its survivability made it too expensive to be lost and was thus canceled. So could they take the island? Yes. But can they get there in one piece? The Strait is a bottleneck. Iran has practiced this fight over and over for decades. They will use swarm tactics with fast attack craft/fast inshore attack craft (FAC/FIAC) armed with cheap surface-to-surface missiles, suicide drone boats, aerial drones like Shaheds, and land based surface-to-surface missiles like the highly proliferated C802. Once past the Strait, the Navy will still need to traverse the southern and central Gulf, all within shore-to-ship range. Then the island itself is 15 nautical miles off the mainland coast, within Iranian artillery and missile range. Once on the island, they will be subject to extreme bombardment that would make Snake Island look like a Jet2 holiday. It’s the military plan of a mad man.

Hmm... Guess U weren't around in 2008, huh? # No safety net: Why private credit faces it first real moment of truth **Provided by Dow Jones** \- Private credit is easy to enter but hard to exit. Retail investors suddenly seeking their money back could trigger a financial crisis. A spiral of illiquidity, forced selling, markdowns, and intense risk deleveraging could emerge. Sound familiar? It happened with securitization markets during the **2007-08 financial crisis**. The recent selloff of Blue Owl Capital's (OWL) stock after a redemption at one of its retail private-credit funds has become the poster child for increasing anxiety about the health of the private-credit market. Private credit has grown rapidly in recent years - approaching $2 trillion - and it has never been tested through a full recession or highly volatile financial-market stress. Private credit does not have the financial backstop of the U.S. Treasury or the Federal Reserve, unlike most banks. JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon recently warned after a pair of private credit-backed companies declared bankruptcy that problems in private credit are rarely isolated. **Wall Street braces for a private credit meltdown** The fault line exposed now is that private credit is being offered to retail investors and wealthy individuals whose investment objectives are very different from sophisticated institutional investors. These new investors will quickly line up to get their money back, effectively forcing sales of illiquid assets, as in the case of Blue Owl. Shares of Blue Owl hit a 52-week low earlier this month, as did shares of Blackstone (BX). Other major firms including Carlyle Group (CG), KKR (KKR), Apollo Global Management (APO) and Ares Management (ARES) were also caught in the selloff. Private credit-related defaults, particularly among private equity-backed companies, have accelerated significantly in 2025 and early 2026. According to a March 6, 2026, report from Fitch Ratings, the U.S. Private Credit Default Rate hit a **record 9.2%** in 2025, following a previous record of 8.1% in 2024, with 38 defaults recorded among 28 different borrowers.

Wash sales only affect losses, a gain is still a gain even if you buy the stock back. And besides the fact that it would be on the 1099-B, you seem to be assuming that there’s short-term CG involved, which isn’t stated anywhere in the post. The part that isn’t LTCG is probably just the cost basis.

Own_Tart8518

Are yiu in Canada? If so, does your calculation account for the 50% CG inclusion rate? In any case, to offset the taxes, contribute the same amount of the taxable capital gain to your RSP.

Therecanbenopeace

My port is oddly doing really well today considering. CGNX SNOW and CG among the big gainers. Yay me.

Congrats. I got in at $8 and $18 with an average cost of $10. Similar to you, no immediate plans to sell. It's all in my HSA so no CG taxes when we sell for pay for medical expenses after retirement.

cavanaughnick

How does short-term (a few months) investing and capital gains with somewhere like Robinhood work? I have a few grand that I'll need to use to pay my taxes with in April but it's sitting in my savings right now. Can I throw it in something safe/conservative on Robinhood for 2 months, hope it earns $100-200 in earnings, then take it out in April to pay my taxes? And if so, would they send me the tax forms next year that would only require me to pay CG tax on the growth and not the entire amount I deposit/withdraw?

mistermarpole

Asset growth, if they are going to be taxed, should be like a property tax. A smaller % levied annually like on real estate assets. The annual tax should be added to the cost of acquisition (ACB) to lower the eventual capital gains. This way, foreign owners in low CG tax jurisdictions pay something too, and you don't destroy your country's capital base.

FormerCompetition

This is correct on a multi year basis, like a decade or more. I need a fair amount of money per year. With no wages, that means selling appreciated investments (and eventually RMDs), which is either CG or OI or both for federal, and OI for CA. I want that optimized, after any management expenses. My gut tells me that most automated loss harvesting does not work after expenses for long term holdings, as no one has a crystal ball, and if they did, this is not how they would use it :) What is missing is my ability to KNOW that it is a bad idea. 1% expense ration is a lot different than 0.1% mentioned by someone earlier. If that is real and customizable, and I can fund a majority of the fund with existing appreciated assets, I would think the process would work out, but that is a lot of IFs. I have not really found anyone good to ask (fiduciary), which is why I posted here.

NastiN8

For long term CG yes. If its short term capital gain, it is the greater of their ordinary rate or 28%. Check yoself next time sir for you know not what you speak of.

I started making the Ex-US move last February. I'm still heavily weighted in US, but what I did move has seen amazing growth. Particularly the European defence sector. But even VXUS outperformed VOO, especially on the timeline of my sell off and buy in. Unfortunately the majority of my holdings are not tax advantaged, so I have to eat CG taxes for anything I move. Slowly but surely.

Yes, very much have heard of it. (And i want it too) But the reality is that it'll take *years* before it's any reliable and then another many *years* before people stop needing IPv4 addresses. And no, CG-NAT is no solution either. Servers still need real addresses and you can only have so many end-users on it... For the foreseeable future, IPv4 will be a necessity. (And therefore, a scarce resource with limited supply, giving it value and making it tradable)

FlounderKind8267

I understand there's risk and whatever I invest in could potentially take a hit right before taking it out. I'm just looking for somewhere to put money where it could grow faster than a high yield savings account (4.5% at a bank near me). Something like no-dividend ETFs or federally tax-exempt dividend ETFs so I can avoid capital gains tax for the most part until the end, and I'd like to hold onto them for a longer period of time to get the long term CG tax rate instead of it being my tax bracket rate. I also considered CDs or T-bills but I've never done those and have little idea how they work

Deep thoughts on CG America?

fluffynukeit

I am the same boat. In this thread I see too much conflating of 529 and saving for college. The question isn't should you save for college if you have kids and can afford it - I think of course you should. The question is whether a 529 plan is the best way to do it. I live in a no-income-tax state, so the state tax advantages of 529 don't help. So then it is about LTCG and investing freedom. For most people, it will be worst case 15%, which to me is a small price to be able to use a big chunk of my net worth for anything I want instead of siloing it for a specific purpose. If your taxable income (which includes CG) is low enough, they are already taxed at 0% in a brokerage, which might be the case in an early retirement situation with most expenses low and debts paid off.

Sharp-Direction-6894

Right on, bro! The US has rules for long term CG. I can have something like 98k in LTCG and pay 0% federal. I don't know exactly, because I'm not there yet. Just buying and holding at this point in my life.

I don't know, man. I am not sure how much gas the AI trade has left in the tank. I am old enough to have been in the job market for the Dotcom meltdown, and the parallels are more than concerning. I recently read about a company called [Starcloud](http://Starcloud.com) (but they might as well call it Webvan-in-outer-space), which has has raised \~$25M because they made some CG renders of what data-centers in orbit might look like. They have no idea how to solve the myriad of cost and technological problems that this idea presents, but they do have nice looking graphics and a tiny office, so probably legit? When companies that will so obviously be epic failures are getting funded, basically just because it relates to "AI", is a surefire sign that the bubble is nearing it's end. I would bet the farm against that company, and many others similar startups if I could -- the ones that are so illustrative of how "irrationally exuberant" people have gotten about investing in AI and data-centers. VC, private equity, and some banks(ie. SoftBank) are starting to run out of money to throw into the growing AI dumpster fire, that continues to prove that AI can't live up to the hype, replace any meaningful amount of labor, or solve any real world problems that are even moderately novel and complex. Perhaps this is a contrarian stance, but I think we are starting to enter the melt up phase of the current bubble/hype cycle. Maybe you can make some money during the last gasps, but I would be very cautious, and keep your stops snug. You do not want to end up a bag-holder as the smart money cashes in. Last but not least, NBIS has 16% of the float in short interest and rising, so there are quite a few people and institution on the opposite side of this trade with a vested interest in seeing your investment losing value, so yah, be careful.

It sounds like enterprises are trying to see if it makes financial sense and that it may require a lot of employee training to make better use of it. The growth of the services is definitely there as the cloud companies are buying hardware. The question is if enterprises are paying for the services. And there's this: # Microsoft denies report of lowering targets for AI software sales growth *Dec 3 (Reuters) - Microsoft on Wednesday denied a report from The Information that multiple divisions at the company lowered sales growth targets for certain artificial intelligence products after several sales staff missed their goals in the fiscal year that ended in June.* *The source-based report cited two salespeople in the Azure cloud-computing unit, which is closely watched by investors as it is the main beneficiary of Microsoft's* [*(MSFT.O)*](https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/MSFT.O)[*, opens new tab*](https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/MSFT.O) *AI push.* *An* [*MIT study*](https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/big-tech-report-earnings-under-specter-ai-bubble-2025-10-27/) *from earlier this year had found that only about 5% of AI projects advance beyond the pilot stage.* *The Information report said Carlyle Group* [*(CG.O)*](https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/CG.O)[*, opens new tab*](https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/CG.O) *last year started using Copilot Studio to automate tasks such as meeting summaries and financial models, but cut its spending on the product after flagging Microsoft about its struggles to get the software to reliably pull data from other* [https://www.reuters.com/technology/microsoft-lowers-ai-software-sales-quota-customers-resist-new-products-2025-12-03/](https://www.reuters.com/technology/microsoft-lowers-ai-software-sales-quota-customers-resist-new-products-2025-12-03/) I have a fairly new Co-Pilot laptop and I played around with it and determined that I didn't have any reason to use it. And I haven't found anyone that's provided a good reason why I need it. Apple doesn't have an AI strategy. And I don't think that it's hurting them in sales at all. AI has been the buzzword but does having something in silicon on your device help at all? I'm sure that there's a tiny number of people that may be able to make use of it but I don't think that anyone cares if their laptop is AI enabled unless you're working on LLMs on your laptop and then there are specific specs and hardware that you want.

For growth index funds taxes will be generated by capital gains distributions, dividends, and when you sell shares of the funds. Capital gains distributions and dividends generate tax every year. ETF only have dividends which are typically reinvested by investors. ETFs have a way of absorbing capital gains distributions. Mutuala funds pay out capital gains distributions and dividend. You should reinvest all of that. But you will still pay a tax on both Capital gains distribution are sporadic and not predictable. Some years FXAIX has no CG distributions, other years small ones, and rarely big ones. So in genral FXAIX will probably generate higher taxes. But that won't be an issue in retirment account. only in a taxable account. But the tax hit in a taxable account son't be significant until you have about 1 million invested in FXAIX.

People are talking about cartoons, but I'd bet this is more about Disney wanting to be on the ground floor of any technology that could disrupt the special effects industry. Between Disney building green screen studios to replace on-location shooting, and the fact that ILM has touched pretty much every movie with CG in it over the last 30 years, this is them hedging bets to protect the way they make movies.

The amount that was acquired within the last year is taxed at short term rate and the remainder is taxed at the long term CG rate.

Do the math there and you will realize securing profit should always come before marginal tax on profit optimization. Indeed not making money is the superior tax move. Losing money is even better! Set your stop loss range with short term CG in mind, maybe these profits I reinvest will get lucky next time and see a quiet year+ of low volatility drama free gains at long term capital gains maturity, or maybe they get really lucky again and I pay short term capital gains having secured profits and avoided losses. If hype-chasing drunken AI momentum traders decoupled from fundamentals enter your equity and want to pay out your entire multi-year ROI thesis in weeks instead of years, don’t decline the gift because you’ll owe taxes on the profit, pay the fucking taxes.

TheOpeningBell

It's more than that. What if you were able to have positive total returns with harvested losses, some matched to gains, and have a flatter future CG liability??

Many employers use CG/American Funds for 401ks, etc. in case that's a possibility. Best to call the customer service number on the website (not on the letter) to get the lowdown.

I see.  I have some highly appreciated stock that I would pay 23.8% including CG taxes on today but if I wait until I am RE, I could pay as little as 0 taxes.  For me, doing a collar strategy makes sense.  But a put to protect from downside risk and the sell a OTM covered call to pay for the put.  My gains and losses are both capped but if I buy the options to expire in 2026, I can more or less lock a lot of my current gains in without selling until my income has gone down.

> the extra gains are taxed at 15% e.g. filing as Single: ONLY income is LTCG of $49K, LTCG Tax: 0% up to $48,350 So 15% CG tax on (49000 - 48350) ?

slowwolfcat

> capital gains rate of 0% applies if your taxable income is CG counts as taxable income , right ?

GIS is what I just bought. Good earnings, suffering from the SNAP drama. CG a contender. I think COST is also down because of snap

Hungry-Storage6789

depends which country you are remitting too from what i have learned so far. The country i would be a tax resident in taxes foreign CG regardless of where it comes from now, so i am kind of screwed

Hungry-Storage6789

here in Canada i could do the same thing but i would see a 25% withholding tax immediately and if the gains in a given year exceed a certain amount i could get taxed at 40% or higher. Seems to me that the 35% top end tax bracket in Thailand would net less tax if i was remitting 5+million baht/year. Sounds like (given the current rules) i have to accept that investing through thailand is only marginally more beneficial then my citizenship country Canada. And unfortunately it doesn't matter which country i invest, i am going to get hit bringing in any money into thailand. The only + with my situation is that i can bring my entire networth/liquidity into thailand with zero tax because it would be from the sale of real estate which i already paid CG on in Canada, which the DTA helps in this case. What would you do if you could bring over, hypothetically. 1 million USD to thailand tax free given the new rules?

Hungry-Storage6789

Interesting, i had no idea, thank you very much for the clarification. Could you please let me know your opinion on the best way to remit foreign earnings in light of the new rules to Thailand in hopes of avoiding that nasty 30-35% CG tax?

Hungry-Storage6789

"If you are a tax resident in a country that charges CG tax annually without realizing the gain, you owe it regardless of where which country your gain is in." Correct me if i am wrong but my thai tax advisor confirmed that CG is only taxable if it is remitted to thailand in the same year it was realized. It can be liquidated in another country and remitted the following year with zero tax.

I thought you were talking about somewhere with real issues, like Libya, Zimbabwe, or Myanmar. What percent of people have had their funds seized and for what in Canada? It sounds much easier to just hold global diversified ETFs. If you are a tax resident in a country that charges CG tax annually without realizing the gain, you owe it regardless of where which country your gain is in. If you are not, then you should be thinking about where you are at the time you realize gains.

Keep DCA'ing, with same or larger amount. Put the balance in something that will beat inflation safely - T-Bills, maybe some in PULS, FLRN, SKOR - the ETFs are easier to trade in/out of when you need that capital (share prices don't rise much, they just throw off dividends, so no CG tax worries). You don't say whether it's in a taxable or tax-advantaged fund...

walrusparadise

Anything to share about your PE hypothesis? CG, APO, and KKR are down 13-20% on the month and I'd be interested in getting in but don't see signs of it turning around soon

username00009999

Emergency funds are for emergencies and should be liquid (access within 72-hours or less) and not tied to market fluctuations. Ideally, they should grow with at least inflation, after tax. FXAIX fails that test because it’s subject to market fluctuations. I personally am using BOXX for my emergency funds within a taxable brokerage. This can carry some tax advantages (deferred LT CG) but has potential future tax risks (IRS changes tax treatment). I am in a state without income tax and willing to take the risk.

chibriguy

To start out, I'm a dummy. I tried to google this, but couldn't really find a clear answer. I have a questions on how capital gains work that I'm hoping you guys can help me with. Lets say I have a salary of 90k, and I've made 150k on short term capital gains this year. I live in a state that has a flat 5% capital gains tax. I am a single filer. 1. when it comes to what short-term Capital gains tax bracket I fall into, is my salary factored in at all? So without my salary, I top out at the 24% bracket (84k - 160k). But if my capital gains starts at 91k, that would push me up to the 35% bracket (204k - 510k). 2. Is the Capital gains tax flat? like, if my CG is at 150k, is the whole thing taxed at 24% or is it by bracket, like the first 10k being taxed at 10%, then 10k-40k being taxed at 12%, 40k-84k at 22%, and so on. Again, I'm an idiot. I know these questions are super basic, but this is the first year of my life that I'm going to have a large amount of capital gains and I want to make sure I'm prepared when taxes come around. Thank you.

Is CG being punished for announcing the bad news lol

SDirickson

"Can I realize a short-term gain in a taxable account without paying STCG taxes?" That would be a No. If you're concerned about CG taxes, that means you're already winning, so complaining about it sounds a bit silly.

dqdg

Interesting. So you don’t have CG when you sell the shares?

charliemike

Aren't there investment vehicles that allow a person to invest capital gains into like reinvestment zone funds or whatever and if they keep them there for a mandated amount of time they don't have to pay those CG in the end?

Teembeau

How is this ever going to work? Avengers Infinity War was filmed in USA, Phillipines, Brazil, UK and had CG teams in UK, USA, New Zealand. Then do you pay a tax because of Paul Bettany, Pom Klementieff , Chris Hemsworth? If there's a moment where filmmaking shifts to somewhere else like UK, Canada or maybe China, this is it.

Nuclear_N

Married....CG tax is 0 is taxable income is less than 90ish.

PHL1365

Thanks. I don't really care about CG taxes. I just want to avoid ordinary income so that I can maximize Roth conversions during this window.

PHL1365

Thanks. My goal would be to keep my taxable income to zero while I convert IRA money to Roth at the 12% marginal rate. I'd like to maximize the amount I can convert. I have no problem paying CG tax, which I understand would not impact my income for Roth conversion purposes.

This would only really affect rich people who run for office anyways, so CG would further deter wealthy from entering office. Which is a positive

Peripatetictyl

...It is a truly impressive number to a truly impressive number of people... Most people are not deliberating on the best way to handle $400K of CG.

will0593

No they should have to pay CG taxes just like we would. Who cares if they'd be selling due to political office

Sp4m

Just FYI, you're responding to your own post on C**E**TX, not **CG**TX.

FrankDrebinOnReddit

You could sell and rebuy shares. As long as you kept your realized gains to 40k or 45k or whatever the top of the 0% CG bracket is, you'd have no tax consequences.

rackoblack

Just try not to bump your marginal tax bracket into the next one with this extra CG income, so you don't pay the higher income tax rate on any regular income. If there's any chance of a low income year coming up in the next few years (taking a nonpaid sabbatical, for instance), booking gains in that year will get you lower tax rates, maybe even 0% on part of it.

TheBigCoool

On project here in CG to ramp up production. We are averaging over 90 units a day up from mid 60s. Cars are being built and there is a need to bring in outside help to ramp up production. Take that how you will.

I got caught with about 1k in hood on a yolo, not in an ISA, forgot about, now it's about 15k worth. There goes my CG allowance for the next 5 years.

Level_Impression_554

QSBS tax exclusion and thus tax free is a perfect example of how they laws are made by the rich to benefit the rich. Congrats on the big payout. I have a few shares that are QSBS but I think we are going lose our status so I will be at the CG rate.

Upstairs_Whole_580

Good job dude. I had everything in the market and lost mid 7 figures. Why? Because I didn't want to sell and pay the CG tax. But I had no idea how bad it would have gotten. If I was in a Roth, I'd have sold at 150 with him announcing tariffs. That was a scary time, but there was no question NVDA would be alright. I DID think it'd potentially go to 60 but Trump reversed course on the tariffs. But shit, I realized if I could go back and do 2024 over again, starting with my initial capital to start 2024, it'd take 5 trades(of stocks I DID invest in like SMCI, QBTS, RGTI, then NVDA again) and I'd be worth.... like 6B dollars! LOL... I mean, it's a silly practice, and just one that hurts. I feel like right now if I sold everything and put it in Eth, I'd see 3X returns this year. But I'm not going to do it(I mean, maybe I'll put 10% in there). But I don't have the guts to sell NVDA. I've been sitting for about 7 years and have added a few times. In fact, my big regret is I sold half my AVGO shares during this time. But I bought AMD, META, SMCI and TSM with the other half. But I'd much rather have kept all 8700 shares in AVGO. I would have also known to not invest in about 8 other speculative plays that cost me money. But fuck, you didn't have the benefit and you nailed it...so congrats!

OPTT had an amazing year between contracts and general relations with the Navy and CG… I think we are onto something here

What you said matches up with the animated explained video on it: https://youtu.be/OjpFZXvVP2M?si=-CG3QnaorE8U9ueU

AgreeableAct2175

Taxes... Nope. Depends on where you live.  I get a much better deal with a mix of divs and CG than I would with either exclusively.

jorcon74

All mining plays are about dividends not CG unless your are an insider! Playing mines for capital growth is juggling with dynamite, better to leave it to the pros and buy a mining ETF with a good dividend record!

HugelyIndecisive

Depends on the PE firm in question. There are a few that are publicly traded. Carlyle Group (CG), KKR, Blackstone Inc (BX) to name a few that are publicly traded. Most of them you have to file an additional Schedule K-1 with your taxes as they are a Limited Partnership. KKR does not have the Schedule K-1 requirement. I remember when this was approved and announced. It was a huge deal that they were the first and perhaps the only still that doesn’t have you have to file that Schedule K with your taxes. You can even correlate that event on their stock chart and see how the price went higher.

Untouchable-Ninja

Dude, you should read about the absolute annihilation that's happening in the VFX / CG community right now. Every month or two there's articles about a studio folding, and hundreds of people suddenly being out of work. I've been working in it for over 10 years, and I'd say that 60-70% of the people I know are struggling & looking for work.

baconography

Darth Cheney-esque, boomer megacorps like CG, HON, HAL, pretty much anything in the XLB sector.

We have 40% in taxable,40% in IRAs/401ks, 20 in Roth. CG on taxable draws will be around 60% for our first year of retirement. We wont pay much tax at all until SS draw and RMD time. Flexibility is really what I’m getting at. Don’t put ALL of your eggs in IRAs, especially if you are retiring early.

MattieShoes

> Right, but every dollar of gains you draw from tax deferred is eventually taxed at ordinary income rates, instead of zero % CG rate. Far more likely instead of 15% CG rate. > If all of your draw is ordinary income can cause issues with ACA subsidies and IRMAA for medicare, and could easily force taxes on SS. It's not that there aren't downsides -- it's that there are upsides AND downsides, and generally the upside of retirement account outweighs the downsides. Quick and dirty envelope math ahead... lets say we want to throw in $10k towards retirement. The taxable account way: * Throw $10k into a taxable account, leave it for some decades. Now it's worth $100k. * Liquidate, pay $13,500 in capital gains on that $90,000 of gains, live on the remaining 86,500. * Have $90k AGI because CG is included in adjusted gross income, get lousy subsidies because you ain't broke. The retirement account way: * Throw $13,150 into a 401k because it's the same out-of-pocket ducking a 24% marginal income tax rate, leave it for some decades. It's now worth $131,500. * Take out $104,500, leaving $27,000 behind. Pay ~17.2% because you're traversing the tax brackets, live on the same $86,500. * Have $104,500 AGI, get lousy subsidies because you ain't broke. * Your $27,000 is worth about $30,000 the following year, roughly 1/3 of the way towards paying for the following year of retirement.

Right, but every dollar of gains you draw from tax deferred is eventually taxed at ordinary income rates, instead of zero % CG rate.

>Meta eyes raising $29B to fund AI data center push, FT reports Meta (META) is eyeing raising $29B to fund its major push into AI, turning to private capital firms to finance its data center expansion in the U.S., the Financial Times' Eric Platt, Oliver Barnes, and Hannah Murphy report. Discussions between the social media giant and private credit investors have advanced, with major players including Apollo (APO), KKR (KKR), Brookfield (BAM), Carlyle (CG), and Pimco involved in the talks, the authors say, citing people familiar with the matter. Meta is seeking to raise $3B of equity from these firms and then an additional $26B of debt, the authors note.

EasttoWest9

Thanks for those reminders. I would have to wait until Aug. for it to become a long-term CG. It has swelled to 17% of my portfolio.

Better_Swimmer

Of course, you could sell the stock when the outlook turns negative, but then you're paying CG taxes (i.e., it's no longer a long-term / retirement investment). Not if it's a tax-protected account like IRA, Roth IRA etcc

UuuBetcha

Most of the answers I’m seeing amount to (paraphrasing): "sell each stock before the downturn, eat the CG tax, and move it into another stock with a solid 5-10 year outlook?" If I may rephrase my question: **Is there any way to assess the long-term viability of a company to the extent that it feels like a stock you can hold for 20-30 years?** For example, I know people who have had stocks in certain companies (TRV, IBM, MMM) for decades, having never sold them, even during downturns. So I’m curious if anyone has a way to assess that type of long-term viability.

UuuBetcha

What I’m asking is how OTHER people take into account the long-term life cycle of stocks. I proposed many potential answers to my own question, and based on the comments, one of my propositions was correct: "sell a stock before the downturn, eat the CG tax, and move it into another stock with a solid 5-10 year outlook?"

UuuBetcha

So, in other words (and tell me if I’m misunderstanding you)— Expect to sell your stocks and be prepared to pay the CG taxes. Yeah?

UuuBetcha

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking as well. Just means you’ll eat the CG taxes, but I guess that’s the price of playing.

KL_boy

It really depends on the country, and some countries do not even apply taxes of CT. In my case, the US has already applied a withholding tax on dividends, which I then claim when I pay the taxes, but my plan is to money box the CG when I am ready to retire in some country that does not charge CG taxes.

Limp_Incident_8902

I assure you I've seen more combat than 80% of infantry in the army/marines. You, like I, would be very surprised at what the CG has its hands in.
