Title: $750,000 Portfolio Diversification: Avoiding Liquidity Traps Before Retirement Tagline: $750,000 Portfolio Diversification: Avoiding Liquidity Traps Before Retirement Problem: After 25 years at InnovaTech, Mark, a 55-year-old VP of Engineering, is heavily invested in company stock through RSUs. With $3.2M in InnovaTech RSUs comprising 65% of his portfolio, Mark is concerned about over-concentration and plans to diversify before retirement. He wants to understand how quickly he can sell portions of his InnovaTech holdings without significantly impacting the stock price, and needs to determine the true liquidity of InnovaTech shares available to the public, beyond just the basic shares outstanding figure. He's heard about "free float" but doesn't know how to use it effectively. Solution: Using the Golden Door Asset Free Float Calculator, Mark can accurately determine the number of InnovaTech shares available for public trading, excluding those held by insiders, institutions with long-term holds, and other restricted shares. This allows him to gauge the true liquidity of his InnovaTech holdings. He can then use the Put Option Calculator to explore hedging strategies to mitigate potential losses during his diversification process. Finally, utilizing the Tax Equivalent Yield Calculator, he can compare the after-tax returns of InnovaTech shares to potential new investments. ROI: By understanding InnovaTech’s free float, Mark identifies that only 60% of the outstanding shares are actively traded. This means the actual available liquidity is lower than he initially thought. This realization prompts him to diversify more strategically, implementing a phased selling approach that minimizes price impact. Implementing put options to hedge his InnovaTech positions costs him $15,000 annually, but prevents a potential $250,000 loss during a market correction. Furthermore, by identifying a municipal bond fund with a tax-equivalent yield of 6.5% using the Tax Equivalent Yield Calculator, Mark increases his after-tax portfolio income by $10,000 annually, mitigating some of the tax impact from selling InnovaTech shares. In total, these actions result in avoiding $250,000 in losses, increasing annual income by $10,000, and facilitates a well-informed diversification strategy for his $750,000 transition.
