Stick It To The Man with Tax-Loss Harvesting

Do you want to save money on tax day?
I have another bone for you Apes and any other new investor. If you want to really stick it to the banks and the "hedgies" and to save money this tax season, then brush up on your knowledge of tax-loss harvesting.
Every major investment bank and hedge fund utilizes tax-loss harvesting every tax season. They do this, so they do not have to pay as much taxes when the year is over.

How Does Tax-Loss Harvesting Work?
The process is slightly complicated and requires certain prerequisites for tax benefits. But basically, you sell your securities at a loss, then based on certain time constraints, the loss might covers a portion of the taxes that you have to pay at the end of the year from any gains you may have made in the market. Then, after some time passes, you simply buy back the same investment after a brief waiting period.
Now you have your exact same investment back in your portfolio with a lot less taxes to pay at the end of the year. Who knows, you might even be able to pick the investment back up on a discount.
AMC is the perfect candidate for the so-called "wash sale." Actually, a wash sell goes against IRS guidelines. But it is very easy to avoid the wash sale rule.
Of course, before you do anything you must consult with a tax professional first in order to get the process completed correctly. I would hate to see any of you crush your diamond hands without receiving tax benefits.

As always, I am not a financial professional, and this is not investment advice. Good luck trading. Be careful and be patient. Dont anticipate the market. Rather, participate in the market. Give your investments time. Don't be greedy. Don't invest in anything you don't understand. Don't put all of your eggs in one basket. Don't listen to the hype. Don't fomo or panic into or out of trades. Do your own due diligence. And just follow the trends. A trend is your friend.
