MARKET RECAP

Yesterday: Stocks fell Tuesday as renewed tariff tensions weighed on sentiment, with reports of a 50% hike on Chinese imports sparking broad-based selling across risk assets.

Markets now turn to upcoming CPI data and trade developments to gauge potential Fed policy responses.

On Our Radar: After reviewing wholesale inventories, analysts will focus on tomorrow’s initial jobless claims and key inflation metrics. Regarding corporate financials, Delta Air Lines’ results will draw significant attention.

Under The Radar: The Tax-Deferred Income Strategy Most Investors Overlook

Editor’s Note: Every Tuesday, Benzinga Edge members receive the Under the Radar pick, detailing a very profitable stock or market trend that no one’s talking about. Here’s a sneak peek at yesterday’s:

I admit it.

I hate K-1s.

For the uninitiated, K-1s are a tax form generated by a partnership to report income.

If you own Master Limited Partnerships, you get a K-1 instead of a 1099.

They can be a nightmare if you do your own taxes.

Pro Tip: If you own MLPs, do not do your own taxes.

Again, for those of you who have never owned them, Master Limited Partnerships are fantastic little dividend machines that allow you to own businesses that are formed as partnerships specifically for tax purposes.

I have owned many of them over the years, starting with cable TV partnerships in the 80s and 90s.

It seems like every time I stick a tax return in the mail or hit send to file, I would almost immediately get a corrected K-1, causing me to have to amend my return.

My accountants love K-1s.

I hate them.

However, I hate taxes even more, and owning oil and gas midstream MLPs allows me to earn fat yields and delay taxes.

MLPs are pass-through entities, which means they don’t pay corporate income tax. Instead, they “pass through” income, deductions, depreciation and other tax goodies directly to you via a K-1. And while that sounds like a great deal—and it is—it comes with paperwork that could make your head spin like a slot machine.

The good news?

Most of what you get from an MLP isn’t actually taxable income. It’s classified as return of capital, thanks to heavy depreciation and amortization. That means you’re deferring taxes until you sell, when the IRS gets its cut as capital gains (and sometimes ordinary income via recapture).
