Does the IRS assume FIFO Regardless of Different Accounts?
Nada, thanks for providing the benefit of your experience. Did you find that (absent identification of shares) the IRS would treat the shares sold as those you first bought, even if you sold out of an account you did not even have when you first bought the stock (and did not tranfer shares)? Or would the IRS apply FIFO on an account-by-account basis? TIA -- Shoe

Thanks greatly for the clarification. I have certainly learned something from it. And no I am not related. I am from the Galliano Liquer people..(just kidding)
