Re: Your short-against-the-box strategy.

Assuming that you cover your short by year's end and keep your long shares, what are the ramifications on the "capital gains clock". In other word do you now have to hold it for another 18 months to get long-term gains treatment? Do you know if this has been IRS tested yet?
