Mr. GJ: RE: <If you have taken his advice like I have, you have a great many things to be thankful for>

I have taken his advice and have a great many things to be thankful for such as Gifthorse opportunities at 2900, 3600, 5400, 6300 ( I missed 7400 because I was at work that day).

Your question about getting around the new tax law relating to "shorting against the box" is complex. As I have specialized in non-tax areas of accounting, my best advice to you would be to take your idea to your CPA firm. The top Big-6 (Soon to be 5) firms certainly could help you out with such a question. As a buy and hold long-term investor in mostly mutual funds from Brinker's recommended list, I have no experience shorting against the box.

Regarding your observations about this board, in my humble opinion they are all accurate. I too welcome you to the board and look forward to exchanging future views and reading your subsequent posts.
