Investify provides educational tools and information only — not financial, tax, or investment advice. Results are estimates. Consult a qualified professional before making decisions. Uses estimated 2026 federal brackets: long-term gains stack on top of ordinary taxable income through the 0% / 15% / 20% brackets; short-term gains are taxed as ordinary income; the 3.8% net investment income tax is added above $200k ($250k joint) modified AGI. State taxes, losses, wash sales, depreciation recapture, and collectibles rates are not modeled — verify current IRS thresholds.
