from 4 Minute Money

You did not sell. You did not withdraw. So why is there a capital gains tax bill sitting on your kitchen table?

Doug Goldstein breaks down exactly how this works, what to look for on your statement, and the one move you can make this week to stop being caught off guard. If you have held the same funds for years and never questioned the tax impact, this one is for you.
