Crazygurl1972 asked:


I am interested in purchasing an IPO but fidelity (the brokerage firm where my account is) has quiet strict guidelines about who can be involved in an IPO and who cannot - so I have to wait for the IPO to be in the secondary marekt - how long does that normally take and at that point is there still potential for profit?

Holy..cow! asked:


What are the approximate tax rates for selling a stock that I’ve owned for about 7 months? I worked for the company pre-ipo (if that matters).

Any suggestions on how to reduce the tax? don’t want to hold onto it for more than another month.

Appreciate your answers! Thnx.
