I'm surprised we've never seen a reported case directly on point. The statute (Int. Rev. Code sec. 1092) says that if 'the taxpayer has acquired' the same stock that he's claiming a loss on, then he gets no deduction.... There's nothing in the statute that includes Jack's notion the the acquisition has to be in a taxable account. I think the wash sale rule applies. |
