If your investment amount is larger than 25000$ and can buy and hold to
mature even the bond price is lower, you can try individual muni bond.
Otherwise, bond fund is better. Muni is good for those income fed tax rate
above 28 percent. If you hit AMT, don't choose bond or bond fund has AMT
muni.

Thanks.
It looks like that capital gain from selling the muni bonds is still subject
to tax. So should I just avoid buying discount muni bonds? and if I buy
discount muni bonds and hold it to maturity. does it still count as capital
gain or interest?

If you really like muni and want to buy in your Roth, you should consider
taxable muni or build America bond (BAB) bond issued during 2009-2010
because they pay higher interest than tax free muni bond.

I see. If I had 1m outside tax advantage accounts, I would certaily consider
muni too. But I probably won't leave all eggs in the same basket such as
munis, especially high yield munis.

Muni bond 5% tax free interest for many kicker bonds available plus AGM or
MBIA insured, or taxable investment grade corporate or muni/BAB bonds 5.3-7%
yield plus high dividend BDC 9-13.5% yield dependent on your tax bracket.
If you are extremely conservative, 4% tax free muni bond with A+ rating and
AGM/MBIA insured can still give you $160,000 tax free revenue every year

No, individual bonds are different with bond fund or ETF, please see bond

muni/BAB bond.

Actually I was referring to the "total return" of this ETF from ishares
website. As you said these are two different animals. So I think by
comparing total return of the ETF and the yield to worst of the zero coupon
muni bond, I'm essentially comparing the money I gain by purchasing these
two products assuming I hold the muni bond to maturity or to be called. And
on top of it muni bond's yield is immune from the fed tax.

http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-muni-bonds3-2010feb03,0,7917192.story
Investors in California bonds have keen interest in Obama budget
The plan would restore higher tax brackets, which could cause a surge in
demand for tax-free munis. But possible changes to the Build America Bond
program could boost issuance of tax-free bonds.

你那里地形比较平?
bay area 有几个在荒山沟谷中建的球场, slope 都较高。
我倒是倾向打一般的muni, 但是这个高slope 球场离我太近了,用它的练习设施最多。
最近它终于开始提供happy hour.
你在slope 120多的muni 打 80s, 这种高slope球场适应一下, 也应该80s.
主要是forced carry 多一些, uneven lie 多, 有些fw就是不容易drive, 一出fw

这这估计要丢2-4 个球吧。

Don't limit your bond tier to tier 1 bond only and choose all state if you
want high yield. Most high yield muni bonds now are either in CA or PR. Buy
PR bond if you are not in CA and still want it state tax free. Because some
BBB+ grade bond has downgrade risk, buy the high yield with monoliner
insurance will garantee you will get interest semiannually and principal
back at maturity even the bond issuer defaults. Some of my current muni bond

Because the minimum for muni is 5000$. For a better bid quote if you want to
sell it before mature, at least 10000$ will give you a better price to sell
. So 25000$ is only 2-3 individual muni bonds which you can compare ratings,
maket value prices, yields, and liquidation (bid prices) to get some
experience. If you can garantee you will buy and hold, then 5000$ is no
different with 25000$.

Natl is good, it is split by Mbia for monoliner muni bond insurance only,
the rating is Baa, only below Assurance (AGM/FSA) which is AA3, but higher
than all other companies. The yield is usually better than AGM/FSA insured
bond. I think it is one of the best choice for individual muni bond.

Yes, zero coupon will give you higher YTM, but market volatility is also
higher. If you want to sell your bond before maturity, I do not recommend
zero coupon bond because the spread between the bid quote from the broker
and market price will be too large. Only you are 100 percent sure that you

Muni bond with monoliner insurance, 4-4.8 percent yield and federal tax free
, pay interest every 6 month. If you consider zero coupon bond (no interest,
return you face value till maturity, you pay 45-48$ for 100$ face value as
15 year mature bond), the yield can be higher as 5-5.5 percent. If you buy a
muni of your state or Puerto Rico, it will be both federal and state tax
free.

individual bond capital gain/loss is always fair or und... 阅读全帖
