SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you correct portfolio allocation drift by translating target allocations into actionable trade recommendations, while accounting for taxes, transaction costs, and wash sale constraints.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Drift analysis vs. IPS targets: Compares current allocation by asset class to target weights and flags positions outside the rebalancing band (e.g., ±3–5%).
  • Tax-aware trade recommendation: Prioritizes rebalancing in tax-advantaged accounts, avoids problematic sales in taxable accounts (e.g., large short-term gains), supports tax-loss harvesting, and coordinates wash sale rules across accounts.
  • Asset location review + implementation plan: Suggests where assets should be held (taxable vs. IRA/Roth/401k) and outputs a trade list with estimated costs, tax impact, and before/after drift changes.

Quick Start

Tell the AI to analyze your current holdings and generate a tax-aware rebalancing trade list using your IPS targets, including wash sale coordination across all accounts.

Frequently Asked Questions about Portfolio Rebalance

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I rebalance my portfolio without triggering large tax bills?

Tax-aware portfolio rebalancing prioritizes trades in tax-advantaged accounts to avoid realizing large short-term capital gains in taxable accounts. It generates a trade list that estimates transaction costs and tax impacts while coordinating wash sale rules across all holdings.

What is asset allocation drift and when should I check my portfolio?

Asset allocation drift occurs when current asset class weights deviate from your Investment Policy Statement targets. You should perform an allocation check when positions exceed rebalancing bands, typically set at ±3–5%, to correct the drift and restore target weights.

How do I coordinate wash sale rules across multiple account types during rebalancing?

Coordinating wash sale rules across multiple account types involves tracking tax-loss harvesting trades to ensure you do not repurchase the same security within the 30-day window. The analysis reviews taxable and tax-advantaged holdings to prevent disallowed losses.

Can I get trade recommendations that show estimated tax impacts and before/after drift changes?

Yes, the analysis computes your current allocation drift and generates a trade recommendation table. This table outputs specific trades, estimates transaction costs and realized tax impacts, and displays the before and after drift changes for your portfolio.

What is the best way to decide where to hold assets across taxable and tax-advantaged accounts?

An asset location review determines where to hold assets across taxable, IRA, Roth, and 401k accounts to maximize tax efficiency. It suggests optimal placements and outputs an implementation plan with a trade list to correct portfolio drift.

Why does my portfolio rebalancing plan ignore short-term capital gains?

Tax-aware rebalancing avoids problematic sales in taxable accounts that trigger large short-term gains, preferring to execute trades in tax-advantaged accounts instead. This approach minimizes realized tax impacts while bringing your allocation back within target rebalancing bands.
