Sorry. I read your post as "no hanging", rather than "No. I'm hanging ..."

I don't know US tax laws. In Canada, A capital gain is a capital gain regardless of how long the stock has been owned.

IN any case, your CPA would certainly know the law or be held accountable if he gave you wrong advice.

Given that it's already September, Oct 1 is probably safe for you. I wouldn't expect the deal to close or fail before then.

Again congratulations on the paper win and best of luck in making it real next month.

Ian.
