| gains strategy query I am not sure about the strategy here. I currently have net short term gains. I also have long term gains, includes gains taken recently so they qualify for the favored tax. My question: I have some stocks that I've owned for a few years. These are showing a loss. I would just as soon sell them either now or in January. I'm not sure which is best. If I sell now, won't it reduce my tax favorable long term gains. I'd rather have it reduce income subject to a higher tax. Can this be done?? Any ideas?
