Investor Education | Harvest Time for Investors

At this writing, the prospects for tax reform that would become effective in 2018 are uncertain. But that does not mean investors should sit on the sidelines.

In particular, absent other circumstances, you may "harvest" capital losses from sales of securities at year-end to offset capital gains realized earlier in the year. Any excess may offset up to $3,000 of ordinary income before it is carried over to next year.

Conversely, if you realized capital losses previously, you might harvest high-taxed capital gains what would be absorbed for tax purposes by those losses.
