I ask my broker the same question the other day. I was hoping to give my daughter stock which I had bought at a very low price and had hoped the current higher price would be her basis.

Per broker, the stock's basis to her will be the same as my basis. Since she is in a lower tax bracket, then if she were to sell she would pay less in capital gains.

Hope I am wrong--or someone can tell me how to transfer $10K worth of stock more advantageously.
