EU-Wide Transaction Tax Blocked - WSJ.com http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304765304577482190886805120.html EC9 modified FTT sounds very shaky to me. The law seems garbled here and not well tested yet. EC9 modified FTT will affect dissenters like the UK, Sweden and others and...

EC9 FTT - a socialist glue for a socialist Europe. That's a recipe for further EU problems and certainly not success.

Sounds right. We all know full well that UK's stamp duty is a Main Street tax, with exemptions for banks and market makers. Traders in the UK focus on non-taxed CFDs. As long as an EC9 modified stamp duty or FTT doesn't hurt traders in the US and around the world outside the EC9, is it a big...

Fantastic job with the site changes and updates! No mention of "enhanced cooperation" of the EU 9 who is not rock solid and if one peels off they don't have enough for enhanced cooperation. They need over half of the 17 eurozone countries. The smaller the passage group, the more those...

German SPD eyes fiscal pact vote in coming weeks | Reuters http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/06/12/eurozone-germany-pact-idUSL5E8HC3VN20120612 My thoughts: SPD's Steinmeier seems to be jockeying with Merkel for the next election, to oppose her for Chancellor. He is holding court with...

German Passage of Fiscal Pact Uncertain http://www.nasdaq.com/article/german-passage-of-fiscal-pact-uncertain-20120612-00087 My thoughts: Showdown over FTT in Germany today. Will SPD sign on to Merkel's fiscal compact and wait for an uncertain FTT in 2013, or will SPD insist on FTT...

From what I've read on Elite over the years, it seems that many people have offshore bank accounts, assets and corporations that they hide from the IRS. Your time is numbered. The IRS is busting these taxpayers left and right and finding them through all sorts of ways. Busting banks and...

Great job tortoise, Tom Davis, seasideheights and others. Let's post every link fast again now and then pile on our Comments on the articles to hammer home our side. I did for The Hill earlier and see others joined me. Hollande gives every FTT pusher a green light to reinvigorate their FTT...

Sorry, I've been absent on this thread due to the tax-season deadline, reporting on the cost-basis reporting crisis, and then my vacation. I am concerned with left-of-center parties winning in Europe. If Socialist Hollande wins in France tomorrow, it will further embolden the left parties in...

Thanks to my partner Darren Neuschwander CPA who heads up tax preparation and our 15 CPAs, I have time to defend the tax and regulatory interests of traders year round, and to do consultations most of the day. The IRS did not purposely cause this Form 8949 reporting mess and they still don't...

Paper file the federal extension and attach the Section 475 MTM election statement to that extension. There is no way to make that election statement with an e-filed extension.

Yes, with a 2012 Section 475 MTM election made by 4/17/12, you won't have Form 8949 to deal with on business trades, since business trades are reported on Form 4797 Part II. Problems with reconciling Form 8949 to botched 1099-Bs may be worse for 2012, afer unresolved problems from 2011...
