"Is that the best you can come up with. If you happen to pay some tax it actually means you are making money. "

You mean facts are what I came up with? Have you not heard of 50% discount on CGT? Are you seriously telling me that the tax implications of selling shares that have been held less than a year do not come into your equation when profit taking. You are now seriously starting to make yourself sound very foolish.

Why would I possibly give away a 50% discount of capital gains by selling the portion of shares that I have held less than 12 months? Did you even comprehend that when you wrote your pitiful and generic retort?

People with large tax obligation may like to sell off shares that limit capital gains until the next financial year. But again it seems you can't comprehend that aspect or you wouldn't have stated paying tax means you make money type statement.

You are clearly out of your depth in even the most simple discussions on tax implications. It is about time others saw what your posts really are.
