Personal Investments • Can I sell a bond to myself?

$
0
0
I have an inherited IRA (non-spousal) that has a thinly traded bond that matures in 2033. I am required to liquidate the inherited IRA before then. Therefore I will have to sell the bond or transfer it in kind (taxable event) to my brokerage account.

I do not want it in my taxable brokerage account, but I wouldn't mind having it in my traditional IRA.

Question: Can I sell it in my inherited IRA and buy it in my traditional IRA? If so, how? Both IRAs (inherited and traditional) are at Fidelity.

An interesting question...
But, if the bond leaves the inherited IRA, in any way, shape or form, isn't that still a taxable event?

The answer might be different if there weren't two sets of IRS rules in place for these two IRA account types.

Regards,
