Hi I have two questions:
1) I held a stock with total value of $2.00. I sold the "worthless" stock in order to take the loss for a tax writeoff. As silly as it sounds, after paying my $5.00 commision, I actually ended up having a net proceed of negative $3. Would I report my proceeds as negative $3.00 on my tax forms, or should I just say I sold it for zero?2) I held another stock, which got pulled off the major exchanges, then went on the BB or OTC. After more time, the stock then disappeared from my account holdings. If my broker does not report a sale of this stock on my 1099, am I to assume the stock still exists, but just isn't active on any exchanges?
