myStockOptions covers the major issues and post-election strategies in tax and financial planning for employee stock options, RSUs, and other equity awards at year-end.

(PRUnderground) December 3rd, 2024

Year-end is always a key time for financial and tax planning among the millions of employees in the United States who have stock compensation (such as stock options and restricted stock units), participate in an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP), and/or have holdings of company shares. In 2024, stock-market uncertainty and the US election have added yet more dimensions to planning.

To help, myStockOptions.com has updated its resources on the major issues and innovative financial-planning strategies for the end of 2024 and the start of 2025. This content is available in the website’s section Financial Planning: Year-End.

At year-end, multi-year planning is especially valuable with stock compensation. “You can control the timing of stock sales and option exercises, and you know when restricted stock/RSUs will vest,” observes Bruce Brumberg, the Editor-in-Chief of myStockOptions.com. “Market uncertainty and the impact of the new White House and Congress make the need for expert guidance even more important.”

Timely year-end guidance is crucial for people who are considering option exercises or stock sales at the end of 2024. “Employees with equity grants and company shares should be aware of the 2024 and 2025 thresholds for higher tax rates on compensation income and capital gains, the phaseouts for various tax credits, and the Medicare surtax on investment income,” Mr. Brumberg notes.
