Some common capital gains questions to consider when investing in the stock market include: How long do I plan to hold the investment before selling it? What is the tax rate on capital gains for my income bracket? How will capital gains impact my overall investment strategy and financial goals?

One way to avoid capital gains tax on stocks is to hold onto the stocks for at least one year before selling them. This can qualify you for the lower long-term capital gains tax rate. Another strategy is to offset gains with losses from other investments to reduce the overall tax liability. Consulting with a tax professional can also help in finding other legal ways to minimize capital gains tax.
You have 1000 in unrealized stock gains how can you best put this money to use?
An "unrealized stock gain" is the difference between your basis in the stock and what it's selling for now. If you listen to guys like Jim Cramer, you're supposed to immediately dump the stock, pay taxes on the gain and invest in one of the stocks he's hyping. I'm going to tell you how to make money the really old-fashioned way: buy and hold. This applies if you like the stock--if you didn't ever like the stock you should get rid of it, but my question is always, 'if you didn't like the stock in the first place, why did you buy it?' Obviously you don't want to lose much of this gain, so my recommendation is to buy a one-year at-the-money put to protect your gain.

If you cash in stock options how are you taxed?
"Cashing in" stock options is done by exercising them then immediately selling the stock. You can't just take the stock option to the company accountant and ask for money. If you don't hold the stock long enough, your gains are taxed as ordinary income. (If you hold the stock long enough - there are two concurrent calendars, and you've got to hold the stock for two years after you got the option plus one year after you bought the stock, and the second issue only comes into play if you waited more than a year to exercise the option, then you're taxed at the capital gains rate.)

Is a withdrawal of cash from a brokerage account taxable?
The withdrawal of cash itself is not taxable. You are taxed on capital gains within the account. If you sold a stock for $15 that you purchased for $10 your tax would be the capital gains rate* x $5 = ($15 selling price -$10 cost basis). Whether you withdraw that money or not the $5 is treated as income and is taxed. * The Capital Gains rate depends upon the length of time you owned the stock. If you own the stock less than one year it is taxed at the short term rate. If you hold a stock longer than one year then you are taxed at the long term rate.

There is no such animal as a short term capital gain or loss... When you hold the stock for a year or more it is treated as capital and the tax rate on your realized gains is (currently) 15%.
