| When shorting a stock, you have to pay a commission to your broker for each transaction--one when you sell and another when you buy. The legislative history and the conference reports for the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997 (TRA '97) clearly indicate a congressional desire to diminish tax-motivated transactions, such as shorting against the box. That's because the short positions in long/short equity baskets have been pounded because of momentum investing and all the money flowing into mutual funds, which invest in small capital stocks that are popular shorting targets. |
