I am probably going to need to make a significant withdrawal from my taxable brokerage account next year. Based on my tax projections that will cause me to owe $2140 NIIT on my 2025 tax return. I could reduce that to $1323 by doing some tax gain harvesting this year below the NIIT level. That is a potential tax savings of $817, not a big deal but I think it is worth thinking about. I will most likely need the funds before the end of 2025 so any price fluctuations between now and then would result in short term gains or losses. I need help understanding how those price fluctuations factor into the decision. What should I do and why?
