How do you justify the income tax implications of actively trading any stock? Why not just invest in a stock that has long term appreciation potential and hold on for the tax deferred ride. Yahoo today reminds me of MSFT 8-10 yrs ago. I always procrastinated thinking it was too expensive and never bought in. Yahoo has a dominant position in it's market and until that dominance appears threatened I will hold for the bumpy ride but in the long run I think this will become as core a holding to any tech. portfolio as MSFT has become.
