LKQ
Hi,

My club purchased 100 shares of LKQ back in Nov 2008 at
$9.42. In addition we purchased 50 shares in 2009 and again
in 2011. The stock has done very well and split in Aug of
2008 giving us 400 shares. We want to sell 200 shares but
need some advice on which lots to sell the $9.42 will give
us a large capital gains or should we sell the later shares
that will give us less capital gains. My club can't decide.
I was hoping to get some advice from you.

Thanks,
Lucy -you are asking for the final score on your LKQ gain, but you are in the third inning. Make your decision on the criteria that means the most to your club, then be careful to ensure your broker and accounting software agree.
