I recently sold off 2 mutual funds to pay the downpayment on a house I just bought. For arguments sake, lets say I have 3 other funds that I currently have money invested in. I sold the two worst perfoming funds of the 5. However, 1 of the remaining 3 is also doing terribly (and has been for awhile).
My questions: Is it worthwhile to sell this 1 fund and reinvest elsewhere now...or should I wait until next year to avoid additional taxes?
Also, how are taxes figured on mutual funds when I have been paying taxes yearly on the funds? (is there an easy way to calculate what I will be paying?)
Also throw in the fact that I'm getting married in October and have no clue how that will impact all of this....
I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere....I did look though...couldn't find anything....
(And yes, I know I should probably dump all the Mutual funds....had 'em a long time though...hard to get rid of!)
Thanks!
