If when there are no looser (with 87 positions there always seems to be loosers), I just do not sell and/or re-balance the portfolio then no tax event. I do have a lot of those dividends reinvest especially in the IRA and ROTH accounts. Also, some of the income property generate losses (at least w/ some of the fix ups) and that goes to off set some of the gains in the taxable portfolio. The key is to generate several diversified income streams that keep on giving. A dividend/income portoflio is managed a bit differently than an IRA and/or ROTH. Most of the dividend investors on this thread use an IRA and/or ROTH. In those cases one must be more conservative w/ their principle since losses can not be used to offset gains in other taxable portfolios. EKS
