It's that time of year again. This is when I try to get a handle on my tax liability and try to tweak it downward.
I plan to sell a couple of dogs with unrealized losses to offset some realized capital gains. I've got a question about the wash rule. Does the wash rule kick in if I sell, say, a small-cap fund and then use the proceeds to buy a different small-cap fund, or does it only apply if the securities are identical?
