....OK, another "However" thought.
The company stock is actually company stock you already own and hold??
1) If Yes, then all of the comments above apply.
2) If a NO, because the company stock is in company stock option grants you have not yet exercised, then I'm pretty sure those gains are treated differently...either as exercised NQSO's or as disqualifying ISO exercises, where the gains are directly reflected and taxed on your year-end W-2 as ordinary income....and I don't "think" the long-term losses will offset those at all.
(At least I think that's the case, as I'm getting into a hazy area somewhat out of my personal knowledge...and not conversant on exactly how ISO's....if bought and actually held for awhile, but for less than a year, how those get reflected ...on a W-2 or perhaps some other means)
