ROCK HILL, SC / ACCESS Newswire / February 12, 2025 / While January 31st was a key deadline for filing Forms 1099-NEC, W-2, and other 1099 tax forms, many businesses need to prepare for another essential tax deadline-February 18, 2025.
This date marks the deadline for furnishing recipient copies of Forms 1099-B, 1099-S, and 1099-MISC (for amounts reported in Boxes 8 and/or 10). Failing to meet this deadline can result in IRS penalties, making it essential for businesses to stay on track with their tax reporting obligations.
Forms Due by Feb 18, 2025
The February 18, 2025 deadline applies to the distribution of recipient copies for the following forms. Each form carries specific reporting requirements that businesses must adhere to in order to maintain compliance with IRS regulations.
Form 1099-B
Form 1099-B is an information return used to report broker or barter exchange transactions, including proceeds from securities transactions, stock sales, and other financial exchanges.
Form 1099-S
Form 1099-S is an information return used to report the exchange or sale of real estate property. The recipient copies must be furnished by February 18 to ensure sellers receive the necessary documentation for reporting capital gains or losses on their tax returns.
Form 1099-MISC
While Form 1099-MISC is commonly used for reporting various payments, only amounts reported in Box 8 and Box 10 are subject to the February 18 deadline for recipient copy distribution.

Legendary fund manager sends blunt 6-word message on bitcoin
It's been a wild ride for markets since President Trump announced widespread tariffs on April 2. Trump's so-called "Liberation Day" announcement included higher tariff rates than hoped, leading to investors reworking their expectations for the U.S. economy. There's evidence that a potential U.S. economic slowdown may already be underway, and despite ongoing tariff negotiations, risks remain that tariffs may push the economy into stagflation or outright recession. That risk continues to cast a shadow over risk assets, including stocks and cryptocurrency, which tend to perform best when wallets are fat and consumers and businesses are increasing spending, rather than ratcheting back. Related: President Trump sends harsh message to Federal Reserve on interest rate cuts The stock market sell-off was big, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite falling 19% and 24% from early-year highs, respectively. Bitcoin fell alongside stocks, losing 27% from its January high through April 8. The drop in risk assets was unsettling, but created opportunity for risk-tolerant investors to 'buy the dip.' Since President Trump paused most of the reciprocal tariffs announced on April 2 on April 9, the Nasdaq and bitcoin have surged higher by 28% and 39% respectively. The gains have been impressive, but not everyone is convinced it will be clear sailing from here. Veteran Wall Street bond manager Bill Gross has navigated good and bad markets since 1971. He co-founded Pacific Investment Management Co., or PIMCO, a huge firm with $2 trillion under management. He formerly managed over $270 billion via PIMCO's Total Return Fund, earning him the "Bond King" nickname before moving to Janus Henderson Investors from 2014 to 2019. Gross offered a blunt message about bitcoin this week, and given his track record, his opinion is worth considering. Image source: Bloomberg/Getty Images There's been considerable debate about what will happen to the economy next. Many think tariffs will tax cash-strapped consumers later this year, lowering economic growth, even as businesses press pause on projects awaiting trade deal clarity. Others believe the risks of tariffs derailing activity are overblown and temporary. The jobs market arguably remains healthy, given that the unemployment rate is relatively low at 4.2%. However, unemployment is up from 3.4% in 2023, and companies announced 93,816 job cuts in May, up 47% year over year, according to Challenger, Grey, & Christmas. Related: Analyst resets stocks, gold outlook after rally The uptick in joblessness prompted the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 1% last year; however, the Fed has paused on additional cuts over fear that reducing rates could swell inflation, given that tariffs are only beginning to be felt on prices. The Fed's hesitancy to cut interest rates has drawn sharp criticism from the White House, ostensibly because it recognizes tariffs may slow GDP, worsening unemployment. If the economy were to drop off, and the Fed remained unwilling to budge on interest rates, Congress may be unable to adjust fiscal policy fast enough to bridge the gap, given our deficit and mountain of debt. The U.S. deficit is over $1.8 trillion, representing roughly 6.4% of gross domestic product. Meanwhile, total public debt outstanding is approximately 122% of GDP, far higher than its 75% level in 2008 during the Great Recession. The economic uncertainty has led to bitcoin and gold finding willing buyers as market participants look to diversify risk. Bill Gross's 50 years of Wall Street experience mean he's seen many market pops and drops, including the Nifty 50, skyrocketing inflation in the 1970s, the S&L crisis in the late 80s and early 90s, the Internet boom and bust, the Great Recession, Covid, and the 2002 bear market. More Experts Fed official sends strong message about interest-rate cutsBillionaire fund manager sends surprising message on trade deficitHedge-fund manager sees U.S. becoming Greece In short, Gross has been around the block, making his take on bitcoin worth paying attention to. Gross believes bitcoin is valuable because individuals and others widely hold it, and its supply is capped. "There are now approximately 19.4 million Bitcoins priced at about 107,000 each. The supply of total coins is capped at 21 million over the next few years of "mining," wrote Gross recently on X. "While hard to estimate, approximately 90-95% are held by individuals, institutions, and the moment there is "value" to a Bitcoin." However, Gross appears to think that bitcoin's value may be reflected in its price after its recent rally. "It is in the "meme stock" world for the most part - more valuable than a Trump coin but subject to excessive volatility with underlying value hard to measure," wrote Gross. "There are better risk/reward opportunities," added Gross bluntly. "Any asset category using high leverage is a future risk not only to the asset itself but to the financial system as a whole."

After Hitting All-Time Highs This Year, Is Berkshire Hathaway a Buy Today?
Berkshire Hathaway is run by none other than Warren Buffett, arguably the greatest investor of our time. Berkshire's stock has outperformed the S&P 500 this year and hit all-time highs. Investors seem to like the company's diversity of businesses and its management, and view the stock as a flight to safety. 10 stocks we like better than Berkshire Hathaway › Once the Trump administration began to implement sweeping tariffs against major trading partners of the U.S. in April, investors, sensing a significant disruption in the market, ditched U.S. risk assets and ran for cover. They piled into cash, gold, and assets they believed could provide a port in the storm. One of those happened to be Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE: BRK.A)(NYSE: BRK.B), one of the largest conglomerates in the world, run by arguably the world's best investor, Warren Buffett. Berkshire's stock was up nearly 10% (as of June 4), compared to the broader benchmark S&P 500's roughly 2% gain. Berkshire's stock also hit all-time highs earlier this year. Is the stock still a buy today? Aside from Buffett and his strong team of investing lieutenants and managers, one thing investors seem to like about Berkshire is the diversity of businesses under the large conglomerate's umbrella. Berkshire not only operates a massive stock portfolio, but also a large insurance business as the owner of Geico. The company also owns a slate of energy assets, the Burlington North Santa Fe Railroad, and a mortgage business, among others. It might be difficult for some of these sectors to operate alone, but together they provide diversity and have turned Berkshire into a juggernaut that generated over $89.5 billion of earnings in 2024. It also had $47.4 billion of operating earnings, which Buffett believes is a better metric for the company because it strips out volatile unrealized capital gains and losses. Another reason investors view Berkshire as a flight to safety is because of the company's massive cash hoard. Combined, Berkshire's cash, cash equivalents, short-term U.S. Treasury investments, and investments in fixed-maturity securities totaled an incredible $357 billion. Berkshire now reportedly owns about 5% of the short-term Treasury bill market. The massive pile of cash gives Berkshire a huge margin of safety -- and also a war chest, should opportunities arise in the market that Berkshire finds compelling. Now, after a strong run, it's always important to look at a stock's valuation. One way investors like to value Berkshire is on a price-to-tangible book value (TBV) basis, which is a frequent way investors value bank and insurance stocks. As you can see above, Berkshire's stock recently traded slightly under two times TBV. That's down from highs the stock reached earlier this year, but also above the company's five-year average. While Berkshire's stock does look a bit expensive right now, I still think long-term-oriented investors will be served well by owning it. For one, Buffett and his team have built Berkshire to last, meaning it can perform well through the entirety of the economic cycle, including the tougher parts. Berkshire's equities portfolio has exposure to growth stocks like tech and artificial intelligence, but management are also clearly big believers in oil and gas, which they may view as a finite resource. Not only does the company own and operate energy businesses, but Berkshire has major stakes in large domestic oil and gas producers like Occidental Petroleum and Chevron. These stocks should perform well if the price of oil, which trades in the low $60s per barrel, eventually rises. Investors may be concerned over the fact that Buffett, who is 94 years old, is preparing to retire at the end of 2025 after over six decades on the job. No one will ever be able to replace the Oracle of Omaha, but incoming CEO Greg Abel is more than capable. Without the Buffett brand, I think Berkshire may also try to entice investors by returning more capital to shareholders through stock repurchases and perhaps even a dividend, which Berkshire has never paid before. So even with the departure of Buffett, who will stay on as chair of the company's board of directors, it's not all doom and gloom. There is still much more for investors to look forward to.
