since fu-king scottrade sucks and cant answer a simple question....
can someone let me know...i wanna raise some cash to pay off a couple bills but i dont wanna have to claim the gains on this year tax return...
so whats the earliest i can sell stocks to avoid paying capital gains for the current 2011 calender year? would it be january 1st of 2012 (or january 2nd b/c the 1st is a holday) b/c its a new calender year?
thank you
