BOXX is a poorly designed tax strategy, in my view. Lots of tax problems both for the fund and its shareholders. I focus on the shareholders' problems in my new blog.

Hard to predict a ruling based on oral arguments, but U.S. Department of Justice was impressive today in Moore. Solicitor General Prelogar was nimble with her tax code citations. She had me at section 1248, gains from certain sales or exchanges of stock in foreign corporations.

DOJ just filed a solid brief in Moore, supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/2…… The question presented is whether the Court will accept Congress's wide latitude to lay and collect taxes, or revert a century to a contrived 'realization' rule, and blow up our tax code. taxnotes.com/featured-analy…
