Tax Management Generates 1.93%/ Year in Tax Savings in Sector Rotation Strategy using Sector-Level Direct Indexes
Cambridge, MA — May 2, 2014 — Smartleaf researchers ran a 5-year backtest, from 2008 to 2013, of a 500-stock portfolio sector rotation strategy from an industry-leading vendor, with and without tax management. The tax-managed account reduced taxes by more than 1.93% / year for the investor with 35% short-term and 15% long-term capital gains rates, which is representative of the combined federal and state marginal tax rates for married couples with more than $75,000/year in income.
