example:
You hold a big pharma from Apr.25, 2009. You have big gains. Say it is $40
now from your cost at $20. You are approaching long term.
However, one of its blockbuster drugs are pending FDA decision on Apr.20,
2010, which 90% sure results an approval. However, a surprise rejection will
cut your stock price in half.
Puts are expensive and will lose event value after the decision. But you
still want your long-term gain. Shorting it will result a no-cost (only less
commission) hedge to protec

我原来也这么想过，
主要考虑是long term capital gain is taxed at a different rate, am I right?
你要有两个brokerage account吧。

You didn't get his point, if you hold more than 1 year
you can benefit for the long-term gain tax as 15% only.
But before that, the price might fluctuate, he would
like to short it to protect the gain.
It's kind of make sense at some point, but may need
to have 2 broker accounts.

profit will be short-term if you sell now. Usually 25% and above unless you
are still student.
If you sell after Apr.25 in my example, the tax rate drops to 15%. That's at
least 10% difference in your profit.

The point is you are going to SELL. You already made the decision but it is
only a few days from lower tax. What are you going to do?
1. Sell stocks immediately.
2. Buy puts
3. Write deep ITM calls
4. Short equivalent stocks at another broker
Yes, further gains are limited, especially in 1,3,4.
I consider 3 is the best, when available. Not all stocks have options though.
Anyway 4 would be uniformly better than 1.

lz，我研究过，专门和几个broker都探讨过， 总体来说，这个不可行。
人家有很多限制规定， 等到你想抛出来的时候，你就明白了你还是亏的冤大头。

这种操作有个术语，叫box,可以这样讲，box是broker非常忌讳的。
什么叫box，也就是你陷入了一个loop----死循环。
当你打算抛出股票的时候，你必须先把short的那个抛出了才能sell the long。总之，
是只要你想抛，你折腾半天会发现自己还是赔的那个，那就等于白折腾了。
