Also, not sure if you have experience with rentals, but unless you state it will be your primary residence, you will have to come up with 25% down

Just gotta make sure it's in a well traveled area for rentals.
Just moved from upstate NY and would spend weekends at Killington. Amazing town. Going to buy a rental there towards the end of the ski season this year since it may be a bad season with people exiting after covid.

But if you're overall down for the year in realized gains/losses, you will be capped at deducting $3k loss, but every year you can deduct another $3k etc.

Also, just picked up another 100 shares of AAL because obviously I'm a glutton for punishment... But it will eventually come back, right?
Right?

Debating whether to sell PLTR at a loss to reduce my gains by $3k. Maybe I should do that right before market close today and buy right on market open Monday.. hmm

Chino do you like selling options both ways?
For instance- thinking of buying 30 more shares of RKT to round out my total to 100. Then sell a CC at $22 and while doing that sell a CSP @18. Collect premium both ways as it continues to trade sideways. Seems easy enough right? Then I collect both premiums assuming it trades 18.01-21.99 right?

Any chance you know how quickly the cost basis updates on ameritrade? Wondering if I would see my realized gain if I sold at a loss today, or if it would show up Monday

Just realized I could potentially reduce my gains by $4k, which would save me $1k come tax time. My only risk would be if PLTR somehow mooned significantly by open on Monday which I doubt, planning to buy back in

PLTR probably suffering from a lot of people thinking they'll do that same exact thing. If you believe in it and plan on rebuying perhaps just hold through and don't take the L.

Ah makes sense. I figured it would be a wash but couldnt find anything about year end sales that mentioned it.
Just going to hold then.

Even if your CB is $30, and you sell CC's for 2/19 @ $30, you can get over 5% return if it gets called away...
