How Direct Indexing Works (and Why the Wealthy Use It) (with Ben Lake, CFA®, CFP®)

In this episode, we break down direct indexing and long/short direct indexing, two powerful (and often misunderstood) tax strategies for high-income earners, business owners, and those with concentrated stock positions. We talk about:

• The difference between ETFs, mutual funds, and direct indexing
• How direct indexing helps you harvest tax losses while tracking an index
• Who direct indexing makes sense for (and who should skip it)
• When to switch from standard direct indexing to a long/short strategy
• Real-world scenarios where direct indexing can create massive tax savings
