Option Tax Related Question: I sold puts in 2000 & then excercised the puts & bought the underlying stock. I currently still own the stock. Is there any tax consequence for 2000? I'm assuming that the premium I received in 2000 reduces my cost basis for the stock, & the only tax consequence is when I sell the stock. I dont have to report the put premium as income in 2000, do I? Thanks in advance, Joey
