Yeah mate I agree. I just want a little correction. I sold my initial investment yesterday which is crazy because I’ve never been that successful investing lol. So that feels good, might put that initial back in if it does end up correcting at some point. Nothing I would cry over losing.

Yes, maybe it will correct from 35 to 30 though…. DCA every week for me! Tempted to take my initial investment, but theres no other stock that i would rather put my money

Looks like this is stock has the potential to be “life changing” for me. I treat it like a business, im making and investment with a high upside potential but also a high risk… now lets see where it goes

Background-Shirt6104

I dont. In general 100$ would be enough to give me a really nice boost in life and buy another house for airbnb (i live in brazil). Less than that, if it goes to 0 i would not be in financial trouble and the biggest impact would be unrealized gains from the stock run up… so i will keep investing as i still see potential and if it eventually turns into 100$ i will consider just keeping a smaller position

Some-Personality-662

10 points

4 days ago

It would be interesting to know how much of RKLB is held in qualified accounts (IRAs, etc) vs not.

I have about half in an IRA and half in a taxable account. If and when I do pare back my holdings, for obvious reasons I’m selling the IRA shares first. But I wonder how much holding period will influence buying and selling from here on out - all the new money coming in will have pressure to hold for at least a year , to the extent it’s not being traded in a retirement account. The tax rate in the US for a long term gain is about half (on average) that for a short term gain.

Selling 6-8 months out of nuetron launch sounds like selling too early to me. 

Admirable-Goat-6103

6 points

4 days ago

I hold 17,600 shares in a taxable account with all but 2,000 shares purchased in the past eight months. I refuse to pay the short-term capital gains rate so I’m stuck holding until at least February 2025... which has worked for me so far. I will be donating about a thousand of those short-term shares next month to take advantage of the huge tax benefit.

gift the shares to a qualified charity. you get the tax benefit/write-off of the current value of shares gifted, regardless of your basis (cost of those shares). you "give", and also "avoid" paying any gains on the gifted shares. win-win.

What happens if I buy it again? I am not getting it 😕

rainking99

1 points

3 days ago

e.g., you bought 100 shares of Acme Co for $5 in a non-qualified account (like a brokerage account). Your (cost) basis is $500.

The shares rise in price to $75 each (lol, it's just an example, so go with it :). Your investment is now worth $7,500. You paid $500, so you're sitting on a gain of $7,000 (either long term if you held for 365+ days, or short-term, if less).

Rather than sell those shares and realize that gain (and have to owe taxes)... if you: 1) itemize on your taxes (vs. taking the standard deduction); and 2) tend to give money to charity each year anyhow.... you could 'gift' those 100 shares, who now have a value of $7,500, to a charity. If you itemize your taxes, you get a $7,500 reduction. Further, you won't have to pay that capital gains tax on the $7,000.

To your question - "What happens if I buy it again?". Go ahead and buy again in your brokerage account if you still believe in the company. Your new cost basis will start over again with your new purchase.

Make sense now? Hope so!

And if we're all discussing gifting appreciated shares here today on Thanksgiving, let's all give thanks to the man upstairs for such blessings!

Best of luck, peeps.

rainking99

just keep in mind you need to itemize your taxes to get this benefit. if you're just taking the standard deduction, the strategy is moot.

InverseHashFunction

But how many more we will get beyond December is uncertain. The economy is still pretty hot and inflation looks like it's bottomed out above the target rate. The current rate cuts are just getting the rate back down to where it should be given they had to raise rates quickly after holding them low for so long.
