☆ Year-end Roth IRA conversions are popular — but don't wait too long, financial experts say

If you're weighing a year-end Roth individual retirement account conversion, waiting too long could be risky, financial experts say. Roth conversions move pretax or nondeductible IRA funds to a Roth IRA, which can start tax-free growth. The strategy has become more popular, with a 46% year-over-year increase during the second quarter of 2024, according to Fidelity. Some investors want to pay Roth conversion taxes now while there are lower tax brackets because the current rates are scheduled to sunset after 2025 without action from Congress. However, it's difficult to predict future tax law changes with uncertain control of the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives.

This political and cultural backdrop makes the attention surrounding the SJSU situation more understandable.

TOKYO — The makeup of Japan’s future government was in flux on Monday after voters punished Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba’s scandal-tainted ruling coalition in a weekend election, leaving no party with a clear mandate to lead the world’s fourth-largest economy. The biggest winner of the night, the main opposition Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan (CDPJ), had 148 seats, up from 98 previously, but also still well short of the 233 majority. But days before the vote, a newspaper affiliated with the Japan Communist Party reported that the party had provided campaign funds to branches headed by non-endorsed candidates. “LDP’s payments to branches show utter lack of care for public image,” ran an editorial in the influential Asahi newspaper two days before the election.
