Quoting from the link you shared: 

"You received a Form 1099-B or 1099-S (or substitute statement) as a nominee for the actual owner of the property"


Here is the language in the IRS instructions from the link I posted:

 

....if you received capital gain distributions as a nominee, report them instead, as described under Capital Gain Distributions in the Instructions for Schedule D (Form 1040).
